Popis: Cell is the smallest unit of tissues, whose abnormal growth causes tumor in Brain. Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based tumor and its stages classification in brain MRI images is presented in this research work. This work is started with the enhancement of the brain MRI images which are obtained from oncology department of University of Maryland Medical Center. The integration of Temper based K-means and modified Fuzzy C-means (TKFCM) clustering algorithm used to segment the MRI images based on gray level intensity in small portion of brain image. The values of K in Temper based K-means algorithm more than the conventional K-means again, automatically updated membership of FCM eradicates the contouring problem of detecting the tumor region. Then, from the segmented images the first order statistic and region property based features are extracted. The first kind of features is used to detect and isolate tumor from normal brain MRI images with SVM. There is second kind which is used to classify the tumors into benign and four malignant stages tumor with ANN. The accuracy of classifying normal and tumor brain this proposed method is up to 97.37% with Bit Error Rate (BER) of 0.0294 which is better than other methods.
