This paper proposes using a local clustering approach based on sparse solution techniques for medical image classification, specifically lung cancer image classification. The authors view images as vertices in a weighted graph and similarities between images as edges. They apply graph clustering techniques to identify clusters with shared features, making it useful for image classification. Two new methods are developed: local clustering methods based on sparse solution of linear systems for image classification. Additionally, the paper employs box spline-based tight-wavelet-framelets to clean images and build a better adjacency matrix before clustering. The results show effective performance in classifying images, with our approach being more efficient and equally or favorably compared to state-of-the-art approaches.

This research uses special math techniques to group similar medical images together, which can help doctors identify lung cancer earlier. They look at each image like a dot on a big graph, where dots close together have things in common. The goal is to make a better way to classify images by grouping them into clusters. Two new methods are developed and tested, showing that they work well. The researchers also use special techniques to clean up the images before grouping them, which makes it easier to get accurate results.
