| Summary: | Intelligence algorithm systems rely on a large dataset to effectively extract significant features that can recognize patterns for classification purposes and extensively utilized to assist the physicians in diagnosis of lung cancer. Extracting valuable features from the available dataset is crucial, especially in cases where additional real data may not be readily accessible. In this context, we propose a novel method called feature extraction based on centroid (FE_CXY) for lesion localization, utilizing a statistical approach. The approach begins with a segmentation process that employs image processing techniques to extract features of interest which is data centroid. This extracted data is then used to compute statistical measurements, revealing hidden patterns that contribute to distinguishing between lesion and non-lesion locations. The method’s efficiency is reflected in the development of robust models with improved performance in localizing lung lesions. The study’s statistical findings strongly indicate that FE_CXY plays a crucial role as an important feature for detecting lesion localization supported by a student’s t-test, which identifies a statistically significant difference in the patterns between lesion and non-lesion localization (p<0.05). By incorporating this method into lung cancer detection systems, we anticipate improved accuracy and efficacy, thereby benefiting early diagnosis and treatment planning. © 2024 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.
