Abstract

Listen

Segmentation of tumor form brain MR images is the most important and tedious task in the medical field. In this paper, A Cluster deformable based fusion approach which uses both deformable and K-Means clustering scheme for Segmentation is discussed. The features of tumor and non tumor cases are extracted with the use of the Power Local Binary Pattern (LBP) Operator after completion of the segmentation process. The extracted features are fed to Naive Bayes classifier to perform the process of classification. Here, the validation of the proposed system is done using standard validation methods such as accuracy, specificity, sensitivity and RoC metrics. The developed method is applied for MR images collected from standard SimBRATS database. Experimentation results shows that the proposed method performs better when compared to the traditional clustering and deformable methods and this scheme got accuracy of 84.8%.

Highlights

Brain tumor may appear in different sizes and types with different image intensities
The existing algorithms gives a challenge in the research to choose this medical field to choose as the research field and to increase the automation in this field that should lead to accurateness and correctness
Results in the medical field should be more accurate as this filed is so vey sensitive with respect to results, the classification algorithm used in the classification ogf tuors from MR images should be more accurate .As the inaccuracy is not acceptable in the fields like surgical planning, treatment planning since a minor error may lead to many problems and may lead to improper treatment

Summary

Introduction

Brain tumor may appear in different sizes and types with different image intensities. In Recent years automation of medical image processing has taken a major role in solving many problems and giving solutions with in less time and with less probability of errors as manual detection are error prone. In This Module the major challenges are i) To design and develop a segmentation algorithm which has the features of both the algorithms like deformable and K-Means clustering ii) Extract the features of tumor and non tumor cases with the use of the Power Local Binary Pattern (LBP) Operator. Iii) Training the Naive Bayes [NB] classifier to perform the process of classification from the features extracted using Power LBP operator
