Abstract
To design an efficient partial differential equation-based total variation method for denoising and possibilistic fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm for segmentation and these methods presented the more detailed information of the MRI medical images compared to traditional methods. In this article, the pipeline of the proposed method described by two modules like pre-processing and segmentation. In pre-processing, noisy image is decomposed using nonsubsampled contourlet transform and it contains highpass contourlet coefficient (i.e., noisy coefficient) is removed by the threshold method as well. After reconstruction, the primary denoised image is enhanced by an improved partial differential equation-based total variation method in terms of image details like edges, boundaries, etc. In segmentation, the enhanced primary denoised image is segmented by an improved possibilistic fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm that avoids limitations in possibilistic c-means, fuzzy c-means, and K-means clustering. Next, a support vector machine classifier is utilized to identify brain tissues into gray matter, white matter, cerebrospinal fluid, and tumor part. The parameters were optimally selected by a grey wolf optimization algorithm for the classification of brain tissues. The performance of the proposed method is computed with reference to peak signal-to-noise ratio, mean square error, structural similarity index, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. The experimental results claimed that the proposed method is better than the traditional methods.
