Brain tumor segmentation using K‐means clustering and deep learning with synthetic data augmentation for classification

Abstract

Image processing plays a major role in neurologists' clinical diagnosis in the medical field. Several types of imagery are used for diagnostics, tumor segmentation, and classification. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is favored among all modalities due to its noninvasive nature and better representation of internal tumor information. Indeed, early diagnosis may increase the chances of being lifesaving. However, the manual dissection and classification of brain tumors based on MRI is vulnerable to error, time‐consuming, and formidable task. Consequently, this article presents a deep learning approach to classify brain tumors using an MRI data analysis to assist practitioners. The recommended method comprises three main phases: preprocessing, brain tumor segmentation using k‐means clustering, and finally, classify tumors into their respective categories (benign/malignant) using MRI data through a finetuned VGG19 (i.e., 19 layered Visual Geometric Group) model. Moreover, for better classification accuracy, the synthetic data augmentation concept i s introduced to increase available data size for classifier training. The proposed approach was evaluated on BraTS 2015 benchmarks data sets through rigorous experiments. The results endorse the effectiveness of the proposed strategy and it achieved better accuracy compared to the previously reported state of the art techniques.

Internet of medical things embedding deep learning with data augmentation for mammogram density classification

“…It is experimentally observed that CNNs do not execute well with less data (Iqbal et al, 2019). Hence, to enhance data size, augmentation is applied to generate new data for training (Khan, Khan, et al, 2021; Khan, Kadry, et al, 2021). Accordingly, CNN models are well trained to recognize the pattern due data augmentations process (Saba, Khan, et al, 2019; Saba, Khan, Rehman, & Marie‐Sainte, 2019).…”

Recognition of mRNA N4 Acetylcytidine (ac4C) by Using Non-Deep vs. Deep Learning

“…Recent CNN-based works have allowed for DNA sequence training rather than preliminary feature extraction. RNN connections can generate a directory graph in a sequence, allowing RNNs to extract features from DNA sequences in a novel and efficient way [52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60].…”

Survey on Technique and User Profiling in Unsupervised Machine Learning Method

“…In [23], authors devised the k-means technique for non-hierarchical classification, which is particularly suitable for data extraction jobs since it can effectively handle enormous datasets. The mean of all points reflecting the arithmetic average is the center of the k averages method.…”
