abstract = "This paper describes a novel nodule detection method
that enhances false positive reduction. Lung region is
extracted from CT image sequence using adaptive
thresholding and 18-connectedness voxel labelling. In
the extracted lung region, nodule candidates are
detected using adaptive multiple thresholding and rule
based classifier. After that, we extract the 3D and 2D
features from nodule candidates. The nodule candidates
are then classified using genetic programming (GP)
based classifier. In this work, a new fitness function
is proposed to generate optimal adaptive classifier. We
tested the proposed algorithm by using Lung Imaging
Database Consortium (LIDC) database of National Cancer
Institute (NCI). The classifier was trained and
evaluated using two independent dataset and whole
dataset. The proposed method reduced the false
positives in nodule candidates and achieved 92percent
detection rate with 6.5 false positives per scan.",
