Abstract :
In this work, a multi-scaling classification approach for breast cancer detection has been presented. The approach exploits the generalization capabilities of a SVM-based methodology and a multi-resolution strategy. In order to assess the effectiveness and the feasibility of the proposed technique, a preliminary result has been reported.
