A Sequential Machine Learning-cum-Attention Mechanism for Effective Segmentation of Brain Tumor

Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging is the most generally utilized imaging methodology that permits radiologists to look inside the cerebrum using radio waves and magnets for tumor identification. However, it is tedious and complex to identify the tumorous and nontumorous regions due to the complexity in the tumorous region. Therefore, reliable and automatic segmentation and prediction are necessary for the segmentation of brain tumors. This paper proposes a reliable and efficient neural network variant, i.e., an attention-based convolutional neural network for brain tumor segmentation. Specifically, an encoder part of the UNET is a pre-trained VGG19 network followed by the adjacent decoder parts with an attention gate for segmentation noise induction and a denoising mechanism for avoiding overfitting. The dataset we are using for segmentation is BRATS’20, which comprises four different MRI modalities and one target mask file. The abovementioned algorithm resulted in a dice similarity coefficient of 0.83, 0.86, and 0.90 for enhancing, core, and whole tumors, respectively.

Hybrid Rider Optimization with Deep Learning Driven Biomedical Liver Cancer Detection and Classification

“…At last, a conclusion that the object group in the picture is the core component of DL has been made, and this becomes a matter of major current works. ML method has attained superior radiological efficacy and might solve this break in the radiological categorization of distinct syndromes [ 9 ]. FCNNs (fully convolutional neural networks) do not require explanation of some radiological characteristics for recognizing images, and, in contrast to other ML methods, they might also find some characteristics which are not available in today's radiological practices [ 10 ].…”

A Novel CNN-Inception-V4-Based Hybrid Approach for Classification of Breast Cancer in Mammogram Images

“…Then, using the filter concatenation function, all inputs from subbranches are concatenated. The input from this block is sent to the Inception-B block, which also contains branches and subbranches as shown in Equations ( 11)- (14). Input passes to 1 × 7 convolution (192) from the first branch 1 × 1 convolution (192), then to 7 × 1 convolution (224), then to 1 × 7 convolution (224), and and finally to convolution (256).…”

Segmentation and Classification of Encephalon Tumor by Applying Improved Fast and Robust FCM Algorithm with PSO-Based ELM Technique

“…So, weights must be optimized in case of PSO. Here, each particle has factors such as position vector p k as well as velocity vector w k [ 49 , 50 ] and these [ 51 ] are expressed in where δ 1 and δ 2 = random vectors between 0 and 1 [ 52 ]. g ∗ = global best position β and γ = learning parameters …”
