This article proposes a novel and efficient methodology for the detection of Glioblastoma tumor in brain MRI images. The proposed method consists of the following stages as preprocessing, Non‐subsampled Contourlet transform (NSCT), feature extraction and Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system classification. Euclidean direction algorithm is used to remove the impulse noise from the brain image during image acquisition process. NSCT decomposes the denoised brain image into approximation bands and high frequency bands. The features mean, standard deviation and energy are computed for the extracted coefficients and given to the input of the classifier. The classifier classifies the brain MRI image into normal or Glioblastoma tumor image based on the feature set. The proposed system achieves 99.8% sensitivity, 99.7% specificity, and 99.8% accuracy with respect to the ground truth images available in the dataset.

Aim: Machine learning algorithm plays a vital role in various biometric applications due to its admirable result in detection, recognition and classification. The main objective of this work is to perform comparative analysis on two different machine learning algorithms to recognize the person from low resolution images with high accuracy. Materials & Methods: AlexNet Convolutional Neural Network (ACNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers are implemented to recognize the face in a low resolution image dataset with 20 samples each. Results: Simulation result shows that ACNN achieves a significant recognition rate with 98% accuracy over SVM (89%). Attained significant accuracy ratio (p=0.002) in SPSS statistical analysis as well. Conclusion: For the considered low resolution images ACNN classifier provides better accuracy than SVM Classifier.
