Abstract

Recently deep learning has been playing a major role in the field of computer vision. One of its applications is the reduction of human judgment in the diagnosis of disease. Especially, brain tumour diagnosis requires high accuracy, where minute errors in judgment may lead to misfortune. This project focuses on a solution to identify brain tumour using convolutional neural network. The classification mainly depends on segmentation and region estimation. The segmentation process mainly includes feature extraction by the use of convolutional layer and pooling layer. The pooling layer performs max pooling and average pooling. Segmentation includes training and testing. In segmentation, the intensities get standardized and then the non tumor regions are masked. CNN classifier is used for the classification of type of tumor in the brain. Region growing is used to locate the exact region where the tumor is present. The proposed method is easy to perform when compared to the manual segmentation.
