The aim of our work is the segmentation of healthy and pathological brains to obtain brain structures and extract strokes. We used real magnetic resonance (MR) images weighted on diffusion. The brain was isolated, and the images were filtered by an anisotropic filter, and then segmented by support vector machines (SVMs). We first applied the method on synthetic images to test the performance of the algorithm and adjust the parameters. Then, we compared our results with those obtained by a cooperative approach proposed in a previous paper.
