  1. Wavelet Transform Features: These features are extracted using wavelet transform, a mathematical tool that allows for the analysis of data at different scales and orientations. “Wavelet. LLH_glszm_LargeAreaLowGrayLevelEmphasis” specifically measures the emphasis of large areas with low gray-level intensities within the tumor, which may indicate regions of necrosis or hypoxia and are associated with tumor aggressiveness and treatment resistance
  2. GLSZM (Gray Level Size Zone Matrix) Features: Derived from the gray level size zone matrix, these features describe the distribution of pixel intensities within zones of uniform intensity. They provide information about the spatial arrangement of tissue characteristics within the tumor and can reflect tumor heterogeneity
  3. GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) Features: Calculated from the gray level co-occurrence matrix, these features quantify the spatial relationship between pixel intensities. Features such as “Wavelet. HLL_glcm_Autocorrelation” reflect the similarity of pixel values across the image, indicating the uniformity of the tumor texture
