Item Detection of knee osteoarthritis based on wavelet and random forest model(2021) Messaoudene, Khadidja; Harrar, KhaledThe most recurrent kind of osteoarthritis is Knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Doctors encounter difficulties for a precise diagnosis through its features and to the naked eye. In this paper, we propose a new approach for the classification of KOA by combining the discrete wavelet decomposition (DWT) and random forest classifier from knee X-ray images. A total of 50 images from patients suffering or not from osteoarthritis were used in this study. The suggested technique includes image enhancement using the Gaussian filter followed by Haar wavelet transform. Five texture features namely, contrast, entropy, correlation, energy, and homogeneity were extracted from the transformed image, and these attributes were used to differentiate the radiographs into two groups: normal (KL 0) or affected with osteoarthritis (KL2). Four classifiers including random forest, SVM, RNN, and Naïve Bayes were tested and compared. The results obtained reveal that random forest achieved the highest performance in terms of accuracy (ACC = 88%) on X-Ray images of the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) dataset.Item Computerized diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis from x-ray images using combined texture features: Data from the osteoarthritis initiative(Wiley-Blackwell, 2024) Messaoudene, Khadidja; Harrar, KhaledThe prevalence of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) cases has witnessed a significant increase on a global scale in recent years, emphasizing the need for automated diagnostic computer systems to aid in early-stage osteoarthritis (OA) diagnosis. The accurate characterization of knee KOA stages through feature extraction poses significant research challenges due to the complexity of identifying relevant attributes. In this study, the development of a KOA diagnostic system is presented, leveraging a combination of Gabor, and Tamura parameters using the Canonical Correlation Analysis algorithm. Two feature selection algorithms, namely Principal Component Analysis and Relief, were employed for KOA classification. Furthermore, various classifiers, including K-Nearest Neighbors, AdaBoost, Bagging, and Random Forest, were used to assess the proposed feature extraction approach. The diagnostic system was assessed using a dataset comprising 688 x-ray images sourced from the OA initiative (OAI) dataset, consisting of 344 images from healthy subjects (Grade 0) and 344 images from pathological patients (Grade 2). To mitigate overfitting, a 10-fold cross-validation method was utilized. The experimental results indicate that the combination of Tamura and Gabor parameters with the Random Forest classifier achieved remarkable performance in KOA diagnosis, yielding an accuracy of 94.59%, and an area under the curve of 98.3%. Notably, the combined Gabor and Tamura models exhibited superior performance compared to individual models, as well as existing techniques reported in the literature.Item Combining GLCM with LBP features for knee osteoarthritis prediction: data from the osteoarthritis initiative(EAI, 2021) Harrar, Khaled; Messaoudene, Khadidja; Ammar, MohammedKnee osteoarthritis is a chronic disease that can make a person more susceptible to develop health complications. It is a significant cause of disability among adults. In advanced stages, people can die from these complications. OBJECTIVES: This paper introduces a quick and effective approach to classify knee X-ray images using LogitBoost and wavelet-based Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and Local Binary Patterns (LBP) to increase image classification accuracy and minimize training and testing time. METHODS: The proposed technique involves image enhancement followed by Haar wavelet transformation. GLCM and LBP were extracted from the transformed image and these attributes were used to differentiate the radiographs into two groups of patients composed of 100 normal subjects (KL 0) and 100 pathological cases with osteoarthritis (KL 2). The validation of the classification was carried out using the K-fold cross-validation technique with k = 10. RESULTS: The results revealed that the GLCM provided an accuracy of 77 % and the LBP approach achieved an accuracy of 82.5 %. Moreover, the combination of the two techniques LBP-GLCM improved the accuracy of the prediction with the LogitBoost model (91.16 %). Compared to other classifiers (SVM, logistic regression, and decision tree), the LogitBoost provided a low root mean square error (RMSE) of 27.5 %. CONCLUSION: In addition, the proposed method was compared to the state-of-the-art and revealed the highest accuracy in the prediction of KOA, outperforming the methods existing in the literature
