Brain Tumor MRI Identification and Classification Using DWT, PCA, and KSVM

Abstract

<p> Classification, segmentation, and the identification of the infection region in MRI images of brain tumors are labor-intensive and iterative processes. Numerous anatomical structures of the human body may be envisioned using an image processing theory. With basic imaging methods, it is challenging to see the aberrant human brain's structure. The neurological structure of the human brain may be distinguished and made clearer using the magnetic resonance imaging technique. The MRI approach uses a number of imaging techniques to evaluate and record the human brain’s interior features. In this study, we focused on strategies for noise removal, gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) extraction of features, and segmentation of brain tumor regions based on Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) to minimize complexity and enhance performance. In turn, this reduces any noise that could have been left over after segmentation due to morphological filtering. Brain MRI scans were utilized to test the accuracy of the classification and the location of the tumor using probabilistic neural network classifiers. The classifier's accuracy and position detection were tested using MRI brain imaging. The efficiency of the suggested approach is demonstrated by experimental findings, which showed that normal and diseased tissues could be distinguished from one another from brain MRI scans with about 100% accuracy. </p>
