Multiple Machine Learning Fusion Based Analysis of Fat Composition in CT Images

Intra-abdominal fat is a crucial factor in determining metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance. Therefore, high levels of intra-abdominal fat are always accompanied by a series of diseases such as diabetes, ischemia, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Although methods such as the ultrasonic method and electrical impedance method have been widely used to calculate body fat tissue in recent years, these methods only provide qualitative analysis of the overall degree of obesity. However, for quantitative analysis of abdominal fat and adipose tissue distribution in the human body, the computed tomography (CT) fat segmentation method is necessary. This paper focuses on machine learning, image segmentation, and multi-feature fusion of mean clustering as its main technical directions. In terms of application, it aims to perform a quantitative analysis of the distribution and proportion of intra-abdominal fat in the abdominal cavity of the human body. The study concluded that the quantitative analysis of fat after the fusion method is more accurate, with a subcutaneous fat accuracy rate of 84.26% and a visceral fat accuracy rate of 70.20%. It can effectively, conveniently, and objectively analyze the degree of obesity in the human body.
