Opis:
We present a method for osteoporosis detection using graph representations obtained running a Growing Neural Gas machine learning algorithm on X–ray bone images. The GNG induced graph, being dependent on density, represents well the features which may be in part responsible for the illness. The graph connects well dense bone regions, making it possible to subdivide the whole image into regions. It is interesting to note, that these regions in bones, whose extraction might make it easie
