Early tumor detection in brain plays vital role in early tumor detection and radiotherapy. MR images are used as the input image for brain tumor finding and classify the type of brain tumor. For early detection or prediction of the brain tumor, an improved feature extraction technique along with Deep Neural Network (DNN) has been recommended. First, MR image is pre-processed, segmented and classified utilizing image processing techniques. Support Vector Machine (SVM) based brain tumor classifications are achieved previously with less precision rate. By integrating DCNN(Deep Convolutional Neural Network) classifier and DBN(Deep Belief Network), an improvement in precision rate can be achieved. This paper mainly focuses on six features viz., entropy, mean, correlation, contrast, energy and homogeneity. The proposed method is used to identify the place, locality and dimension (size) of the tumor in the cerebrum through MR copy using MATLAB software. The performance metrics recall, precision, sensitivity, accuracy and specificity are achieved.

Brain tumors are a group of cancers that originate from different cells of the central nervous system or cancers of other tissues in the brain. Excessive cell growth in the brain is called a tumor. Tumor cells need food and blood to survive. Growth and proliferation of tumor cells in the cranial space, cause strain inside the brain and thus disrupt vital human structures. Therefore, diagnosis in the early stages of brain tumors is crucial. This study introduces a new optimized method for early diagnosis of the brain tumor. The method has five main parts of noise reduction, tumor segmentation, morphology, feature extraction based on wavelet and gray-level co-occurrence matrix, and classification based on an optimized deep belief network. For optimizing the classifier network, an enhanced version of the moth search algorithm is utilized. Simulation results are applied to three different datasets, FLAIR, T1, and T2, and the accuracy results of the presented method are compared with two other metaheuristics, particle swarm optimization and Bat algorithms. The final results showed that the presented technique has good achievements toward the compared methods.

A brain tumor is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal brain tissue that can interfere with normal brain function. Although various methods have been developed for brain tumor classification, tumor detection and multiclass classification remain challenging due to the complex characteristics of the brain tumor. Brain tumor detection and classification are one of the most challenging and time-consuming tasks in the processing of medical images. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a visual imaging technique, which provides a information about the soft tissues of the human body, which helps identify the brain tumor. Proper diagnosis can prevent a patient's health to some extent. This paper presents a review of various detection and classification methods for brain tumor classification using image processing techniques.
