AbstractBrain tumor is a group of anomalous cells. The brain is enclosed in a more rigid skull. The abnormal cell grows and initiates a tumor. Detection of tumor is a complicated task due to irregular tumor shape. The proposed technique contains four phases, which are lesion enhancement, feature extraction and selection for classification, localization, and segmentation. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images are noisy due to certain factors, such as image acquisition, and fluctuation in magnetic field coil. Therefore, a homomorphic wavelet filer is used for noise reduction. Later, extracted features from inceptionv3 pre-trained model and informative features are selected using a non-dominated sorted genetic algorithm (NSGA). The optimized features are forwarded for classification after which tumor slices are passed to YOLOv2-inceptionv3 model designed for the localization of tumor region such that features are extracted from depth-concatenation (mixed-4) layer of inceptionv3 model and supplied to YOLOv2. The localized images are passed toMcCulloch'sKapur entropy method to segment actual tumor region. Finally, the proposed technique is validated on three benchmark databases BRATS 2018, BRATS 2019, and BRATS 2020 for tumor detection. The proposed method achieved greater than 0.90 prediction scores in localization, segmentation and classification of brain lesions. Moreover, classification and segmentation outcomes are superior as compared to existing methods.

Purpose The precise segmentation of brain tumors is the most important and crucial step in their diagnosis and treatment. Due to the presence of noise, uneven gray levels, blurred boundaries and edema around the brain tumor region, the brain tumor image has indistinct features in the tumor region, which pose a problem for diagnostics. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, the authors propose an original solution for segmentation using Tamura Texture and ensemble Support Vector Machine (SVM) structure. In the proposed technique, 124 features of each voxel are extracted, including Tamura texture features and grayscale features. Then, these features are ranked using the SVM-Recursive Feature Elimination method, which is also adopted to optimize the parameters of the Radial Basis Function kernel of SVMs. Finally, the bagging random sampling method is utilized to construct the ensemble SVM classifier based on a weighted voting mechanism to classify the types of voxel. Findings The experiments are conducted over a sample data set to be called BraTS2015. The experiments demonstrate that Tamura texture is very useful in the segmentation of brain tumors, especially the feature of line-likeness. The superior performance of the proposed ensemble SVM classifier is demonstrated by comparison with single SVM classifiers as well as other methods. Originality/value The authors propose an original solution for segmentation using Tamura Texture and ensemble SVM structure.


In this research, an automated and customized neoplasm segmentation methodology is given and valid against ground truth applying simulated T1-weighted resonance pictures in twenty five subjects. a replacement intensity-based segmentation technique known as bar graph primarily based gravitational optimization algorithm is developed to segment the brain image into discriminative sections (segments) with high accuracy. whereas the mathematical foundation of this rule is given in details, the appliance of the projected rule within the segmentation of single T1-weighted pictures (T1-w) modality of healthy and lesion MR images is additionally given.

Brain tumor is a life-threatening disease. Brain tumor is formed by the abnormal growth of cells inside and around the brain. Identification of the size and type of tumor is necessary for deciding the course of treatment of the patient. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is one of the methods for detection of tumor in the brain. The classification of MR Images is a difficult task due to variety and complexity of brain tumors. Various classification techniques have been identified for brain MRI tumor images. This paper reviews some of these recent classification techniques.


Brain tumors are the result of unusual growth and unrestrained cell disunity in the brain. Most of the medical image application lack in segmentation and labeling. Brain tumors can lead to loss of lives if they are not detected early and correctly. Recently, deep learning has been an important role in the field of digital health. One of its action is the reduction of manual decision in the diagnosis of diseases specifically brain tumor diagnosis needs high accuracy, where minute errors in judgment may lead to loss therefore, brain tumor segmentation is an necessary challenge in medical side. In recent time numerous ,methods exist for tumor segmentation with lack of accuracy. Deep learning is used to achieve the goal of brain tumor segmentation. In this work, three network of brain MR images segmentation is employed .A single network is compared to achieve segmentation of MR images using separate network .In this paper segmentation has improved and result is obtained with high accuracy and efficiency.

In today’s world, Brain Tumor diagnosis plays a significant role in the field of Oncology. The earlier identification of brain tumors increases the compatibility of treatment of patients and offers an efficient diagnostic recommendation from medical practitioners. Nevertheless, accurate segmentation and feature extraction are the vital challenges in brain tumor diagnosis where the handling of higher resolution images increases the processing time of existing classifiers. In this paper, a new robust weighted hybrid fusion classifier has been proposed to identify and classify the tumefaction in the brain which is of the hybridized form of SVM, NB, and KNN (SNK) classifiers. Primarily, the proposed methodology initiates the preprocessing technique such as adaptive fuzzy filtration and skull stripping in order to remove the noises as well as unwanted regions. Subsequently, an automated hybrid segmentation strategy can be carried out to acquire the initial segmentation results, and then their outcomes are compiled together using fusion rules to accurately localize the tumor region. Finally, a Hybrid SNK classifier is implemented in the proposed methodology for categorizing the type of tumefaction in the brain. The hybrid classifier has been compared with the existing state-of-the-art classifier which shows a higher accuracy result of 99.18% while distinguishing the benign and malignant tumors from brain Magnetic Resonance (MR) images.


Classification of brain tumor for medical applications is considered as an important constraint in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD). In this paper, we study the classification of brain tumor by considering the constraint as a classification problem in order to segregate the tumors among pituitary tumors, gliomatumorand meningioma tumor. This method adopts deep learning principle to extract the brain features from the MRI images. In this study, Recurrent Neural Network is used to classify the extracted features from brain. The experiments are carried out in terms of three fold crossvalidation process over MRI brain image dataset. The results show that the proposed RNN classifier classifies the brain tumors effectively with 98% of mean classification accuracy than other existing methods.
