Abstract Introduction and goal to background Due to the importance of segmentation of MRI images in identifying brain tumors, various methods including deep learning have been introduced for automatic brain tumor segmentation. On the other hand, using a combination of methods can improve their performance. Among them is the use of wavelet transform as an auxiliary element in deep networks. The analysis of the requirements of such combinations has been addressed in this study. Method In this developmental study, different wavelet functions were used to compress brain MRI images and finally as an auxiliary element in improving the performance of the convolutional neural network in brain tumor segmentation. Results Based on the results of the tests performed, the Daubechies1 function was most effective in enhancing network performance in segmenting MRI images and was able to balance the performance and computational overload. Conclusion Choosing the wavelet function to optimize the performance of a convolutional neural network should be based on the requirements of the problem, also taking into account some considerations such as computational load, processing time, and performance of the wavelet function in optimizing CNN output in the intended task.

This paper presents brain tumor detection and segmentation using image processing techniques. Convolutional neural networks can be applied for medical research in brain tumor analysis. The tumor in the MRI scans is segmented using the K-means clustering algorithm which is applied of every scan and the feed it to the convolutional neural network for training and testing. In our CNN we propose to use ReLU and Sigmoid activation functions to determine our end result. The training is done only using the CPU power and no GPU is used. The research is done in two phases, image processing and applying neural network.

Segmentation Methods

Among the currently proposed brain segmentation methods, brain tumor segmentation methods based on traditional image processing and machine learning are not ideal enough. Therefore, deep learning-based brain segmentation methods are widely used. In the brain tumor segmentation method based on deep learning, the convolutional network model has a good brain segmentation effect. The deep convolutional network model has the problems of a large number of parameters and large loss of information in the encoding and decoding process. This paper proposes a deep convolutional neural network fusion support vector machine algorithm (DCNN-F-SVM). The proposed brain tumor segmentation model is mainly divided into three stages. In the first stage, a deep convolutional neural network is trained to learn the mapping from image space to tumor marker space. In the second stage, the predicted labels obtained from the deep convolutional neural network training are input into the integrated support vector machine classifier together with the test images. In the third stage, a deep convolutional neural network and an integrated support vector machine are connected in series to train a deep classifier. Run each model on the BraTS dataset and the self-made dataset to segment brain tumors. The segmentation results show that the performance of the proposed model is significantly better than the deep convolutional neural network and the integrated SVM classifier.
