Brain Tumor Classification and Detection Using Hybrid Deep Tumor Network

Brain tumor (BTs) is considered one of the deadly, destructive, and belligerent disease, that shortens the average life span of patients. Patients with misdiagnosed and insufficient medical treatment of BTs have less chance of survival. For tumor analysis, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is often utilized. However, due to the vast data produced by MRI, manual segmentation in a reasonable period of time is difficult, which limits the application of standard criteria in clinical practice. So, efficient and automated segmentation techniques are required. The accurate early detection and segmentation of BTs is a difficult and challenging task in biomedical imaging. Automated segmentation is an issue because of the considerable temporal and anatomical variability of brain tumors. Early detection and treatment are therefore essential. To detect brain cancers or tumors, different classical machine learning (ML) algorithms have been utilized. However, the main difficulty with these models is the manually extracted features. This research provides a deep hybrid learning (DeepTumorNetwork) model of binary BTs classification and overcomes the above-mentioned problems. The proposed method hybrid GoogLeNet architecture with a CNN model by eliminating the 5 layers of GoogLeNet and adding 14 layers of the CNN model that extracts features automatically. On the same Kaggle (Br35H) dataset, the proposed model key performance indicator was compared to transfer learning (TL) model (ResNet, VGG-16, SqeezNet, AlexNet, MobileNet V2) and different ML/DL. Furthermore, the proposed approach outperformed based on a key performance indicator (Acc, Recall, Precision, and F1-Score) of BTs classification. Additionally, the proposed methods exhibited high classification performance measures, Accuracy (99.51%), Precision (99%), Recall (98.90%), and F1-Score (98.50%). The proposed approaches show its superiority on recent sibling methods for BTs classification. The proposed method outperformed current methods for BTs classification using MRI images.
