Abstract: The process of diagnosing AML is based on the complete blood-count analysis of the patients. As such, it involves high energy consumption, long completion times, and is rather expensive compared to conventional medical practices. One of the methods for identifying tumor cells involves the utilization of image-processing techniques based on the morphology of white blood cells (WBCs). The principal objective of this study involves the identification of AML cells—especially of the AML M1 and AML M2 types—through morphological imaging of WBCs using the Naïve Bayes' Classifier. The Image-processing methods used in this study include YCbCr color space classification, image thresholding, morphological operations, chain code representation, and the use of bounding boxes. Regardless of the processing technique used, all identification procedures, performed in this study, were based on the Naïve Bayes' Classifier. The test process was performed on 30 images of each of the AML M1 and M2 cell types. The use of the cell identification method proposed in this study demonstrated an accuracy of 73.33%. While the accuracy of cell type identification is 54.92%. Based on the results obtained in this study, it is inferred that the Naïve Bayes' Classifier method can be employed in the process of identifying dominant AML cell types amongst AML M1 and AML M2 (myeloblast, promyelocyte, myelocyte, and metamyelocyte) based on the morphology of WBCs.
