TI - Computer-Aided Diagnosis Model Using Machine Learning for Brain Tumor Detection and Classification T2 - Computer Systems Science and Engineering PY - 2023 VL - 46 IS - 2 SN - AB - The Brain Tumor (BT) is created by an uncontrollable rise of anomalous cells in brain tissue, and it consists of 2 types of cancers they are malignant and benign tumors. The benevolent BT does not affect the neighbouring healthy and normal tissue; however, the malignant could affect the adjacent brain tissues, which results in death. Initial recognition of BT is highly significant to protecting the patient’s life. Generally, the BT can be identified through the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning technique. But the radiotherapists are not offering effective tumor segmentation in MRI images because of the position and unequal shape of the tumor in the brain. Recently, ML has prevailed against standard image processing techniques. Several studies denote the superiority of machine learning (ML) techniques over standard techniques. Therefore, this study develops novel brain tumor detection and classification model using met heuristic optimization with machine learning (BTDC-MOML) model. To accomplish the detection of brain tumor effectively, a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model using Machine Learning (ML) technique is proposed in this research manuscript. Initially, the input image pre-processing is performed using Gaborfiltering (GF) based noise removal, contrast enhancement, and skull stripping. Next, mayfly optimization with the Kapur’s thresholding based segmentation process takes place. For feature extraction proposes, local diagonal extreme patterns (LDEP) are exploited. At last, the Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model can be used for the BT classification process. The accuracy analysis is performed in terms of Learning accuracy, and the validation accuracy is performed to determine the efficiency of the proposed research work. The experimental validation of the proposed model demonstrates its promising performance over other existing methods.
