Abstract

The purpose of the present work is to compare three classifiers: Fisher's Linear Discriminant Analysis, Multilayer Perceptron and Support Vector Machine to diagnosis of lung nodule. These algorithms are tested on a database with 36 nodules, being 29 benigns and 7 malignants. Results show that the three algorithms had similar performance on this particular task.
