Research on Non-Invasive Measurement of Optical Parameters of the Tissues by Support Vector Machine

To measure optical parameters of biological tissues, support vector machine was adopted. The diffuse reflected light on the surface of the biological tissue corresponding to optical characteristic parameters of human tissue were obtained by Monte Carlo simulation. The nonlinear relationship model had been established between the diffuse reflected light and the optical parameters. The optical parameters were obtained by the support vector machine and the diffuse reflected light. That were compared with the given values of the same sample, and they were coherent basically. It was shown that support vector machine used to measure optical parameters had a high accuracy.
