Breast density is an important cue to detect both the presence of suspicious cancerous masses and to predict future possibility for cancer development. A fast breast density classification method is presented and successfully tested on two state-of-the-art mammogram databases. The X-ray digital mammogram tissue texture is locally represented by the two-dimensional adaptive causal autoregressive spatial model and its parameters are used as the classification features.
