Abstrakt: Radiologists confront formidable challenges when confronted with the intricate task of classifying brain tumors through the analysis of MRI images. Our forthcoming manuscript introduces an innovative and highly effective methodology that capitalizes on the capabilities of Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LS-SVM) in tandem with the rich insights drawn from Multi-Scale Morphological Texture Features (MMTF) extracted from T1-weighted MR images. Our methodology underwent meticulous evaluation on a substantial dataset encompassing 139 cases, consisting of 119 cases of aberrant tumors and 20 cases of normal brain images. The outcomes we achieved are nothing short of extraordinary. Our LS-SVM-based approach vastly outperforms competing classifiers, demonstrating its dominance with an exceptional accuracy rate of 98.97%. This represents a substantial 3.97% improvement over alternative methods, accompanied by a notable 2.48% enhancement in Sensitivity and a substantial 10% increase in Specificity. These results conclusively surpass the performance of traditional classifiers such as Support Vector Machines (SVM), Radial Basis Function (RBF), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) in terms of classification accuracy. The outstanding performance of our model in the realm of brain tumor diagnosis signifies a substantial leap forward in the field, holding the promise of delivering more precise and dependable tools for radiologists and healthcare professionals in their pivotal role of identifying and classifying brain tumors using MRI imaging techniques.
