Breast Cancer Detection with Reduced Feature Set

Table 1

Real-valued features computed for each cell nucleus.

Number	Ten real-valued features
1	Radius (mean of distances from center to points on the perimeter)
2	texture (standard deviation of grey-scale values)
3	Perimeter
4	Area
5	Smoothness (local variation in radius lengths)
6	Compactness (/area − 1.0)
7	Concavity (severity of concave portions of the contour)
8	Concave points (number of concave portions of the contour)
9	Symmetry
10	Fractal dimension (“coastline approximation” − 1)
