Classification of Brain Tumor from MRI Images

Abstract

Brain tumors are a significant pathological condition within the field of medicine that poses challenges in terms of accurate diagnosis. In recent times, the utilization of deep learning techniques has been employed to create automated systems aimed at classifying brain tumors based on MRI images. The present study aimed to assess the efficacy of eight distinct deeplearning models in the classification of brain tumors. The models underwent training using a dataset consisting of 4,483 MRI images. Subsequently, their accuracy was assessed by employing a separate set of 1,250 test images. The findings indicated that the MobileNet model exhibited superior performance, achieving an accuracy rate of 99.38%. The remaining models also exhibited strong performance, achieving accuracies within the range of 97.68% to 98.39%. The findings of this study indicate that employing deep learning techniques to automate the classification of brain tumors using MRI images is a promising and advantageous strategy.
