Brain tumor segmentation is a challenging task in the medical diagnosis. The primary aim of brain tumor segmentation is to produce precise characterizations of brain tumor areas using adequately placed masks. Deep learning techniques have shown great promise in recent years for solving various computer vision problems such as object detection, image classification, and semantic segmentation. Numerous deep learning-based approaches have been implemented to achieve excellent system performance in brain tumor segmentation. This article aims to comprehensively study the recently developed brain tumor segmentation technology based on deep learning in light of the most advanced technology and its performance. A genetic algorithm based on fuzzy C-means (FCM-GA) was used in this study to segment tumor regions from brain images. The input image is scaled to 256×256 during the preprocessing stage. FCM-GA segmented a preprocessed MRI image. This is a versatile advanced machine learning (ML) technique for locating objects in large datasets. The segmented image is then subjected to hybrid feature extraction (HFE) to improve the feature subset. To obtain the best feature value, Kernel Nearest Neighbor with a genetic algorithm (KNN-GA) is used in the feature selection process. The best feature value is fed into the RESNET classifier, which divides the MRI image into meningioma, glioma, and pituitary gland regions. Real-time data sets are used to validate the performance of the proposed hybrid method. The proposed method improves average classification accuracy by 7.99 % to existing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) classification algorithms

Brain Tumor Segmentation

Tumor segmentation from brain magnetic resonance image data is an important but time consuming task performed manually by medical experts. Automating this process is challenging due to the high diversity in appearance of tumor tissue among different patients and in many cases, similarity between tumor and normal tissue. This paper deals with an efficient segmentation algorithm for extracting brain tumors in magnetic resonance images using Cellular Neural Networks (CNN). Learning CNN templates values are formulated as an optimization problem. The template coefficients (weights) of an CNN which will give a desired performance, can be derived by learning genetic algorithm and simulated annealing optimization techniques. The objective of this work is to compare the performance of genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA) for finding the optimum template values in the CNN which is used for segmenting the tumor region in the abnormal MR images. The method is applied on real data of MRI images of thirty patients with four different types of tumors. The results are compared with radiologist labeled ground truth. Quantitative analysis between ground truth and segmented tumor is presented in terms of segmentation efficiency. From the analysis and performance measures like segmentation accuracy, it is inferred that the brain tumor segmentation is best done using CNN with genetic algorithm template optimization than CNN with simulated annealing template optimization. An average accuracy rate of above 95% was obtained using this segmentation algorithm.
