Breast cancer is the primary and the most common disease found among women. Today, mammography is the most powerful screening technique used for early detection of cancer which increases the chance of successful treatment. In order to correctly detect the mammogram images as being cancerous or malignant, there is a need of a classier. With this objective, an attempt is made to analyze different feature extraction techniques and classiers. In the proposed system we rst do the preprocessing of the mammogram images, where the unwanted noise and disturbances in the mammograms are removed. Features are then extracted from the mammogram images using Gray Level Co-Occurrences Matrix (GLCM) and Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT). Finally, the features are classied using classiers like HiCARe (Classier based on High Condence Association Rule Agreements), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naïve Bayes classier and K-NN Classier. Further we test the images and classify them as benign or malignant class.
