Effective Brain Tumor Classification on MRI Using Deep Belief-convolutional Neural Network with Pixel Change Detection based on Pixel Mapping Technique

Brain tumor is a kind of cancer, in which tissues in the brain grows rapidly and unevenly in the brains and causes huge threats on human life. Brain tumor is recognized as one of the common dreadful cancers among adults and it also affects the children too. This kind of cancer is categorized into two types, such as benign tumor and malignant tumor. However, benign tumor is curable, whereas recovering of patients whoever affected by malignant tumor has less chance to survive. Nowadays, MR images are usually employed to detect the kinds of brain tumor. Early classification and identification of tumor is significant to treat the tumor and saves the human life from early death. However, the classification of brain tumor and percentage in change detection using pre-operative and post-operative MR images is a very challenging task. In order to overcome such issues, this research proposes a new effective technique for brain tumor classification and determination of pixel change detection using proposed Deep Belief Network (DBN) + Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN). The process involves four phases, such as pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, and classification. The combination of DBN + CNN is employed for decision making based on error function. The DBN + CNN are trained utilizing the developed BirCat algorithm. Moreover, the proposed approach achieved a maximum accuracy of 0.957, sensitivity of 0.967, and specificity of 0.918.
