Abstract: The usefulness of Fractal Analysis (FA) is not limited to a particular area. It is applied in variety of fields and has shown its efficiency towards irregular objects. Fractal dimension is the best measure of the roughness for natural elements and hence, it can be treated as a feature of the natural object. Breast masses are irregular and divers from a malignant tumor to benign; hence breast can be treated as one of the best areas where fractal geometry can be applied. It gives a scope where fractal geometry concept can be used as a feature extraction technique in mammogram. On the other hand, the support vector machine is an emerging technique for classification. The survey shows that few works have done on breast mass classification using support vector machine. In our work two most effective techniques are used in separate operations, FA: Box Count Method (BCM) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) that result well in their fields. Feature extraction is done through Box Count Method. The extracted feature, “fractal dimension”, measures the complexity of the input data set of 42 images. For the next segment, the resulting Fractal Dimensions (FD) are processed under the support vector machine classifier to classify benign and malignant cells. The result analysis shows that the combination of SVM and FD yielded the highest with 98.13% accuracy.
