New cognitive computational strategy for optimizing brain tumour classification using magnetic resonance imaging Data

Abstract

The brain is one of the most important organs in the human body. It governs all actions whether one is aware of the action or not. Brain tumors occur when the system of cell division in the brain is disrupted. Brain tumors are frequently associated with severe malignancies worldwide. The uncontrolled accumulation and growth of these cells can lead to the formation of seizures or tumors with impaired brain function.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a common technology used to detect brain lesions; however, manual analysis of MRI images by physicians is challenging due to uncertainty and time constraints. The aim of this paper is to introduce machine learning (ML) algorithms designed to increase the speed and cognitive statistical methods for brain tumor classification.

In this study, we proposed a novel penguin search-optimized quantum-enhanced support vector machine (PSO-QESVM) to categorize brain tumor using MRI data. We used a publicly accessible brain MR image dataset for brain tumor classification tasks which we obtained from an online source. A median filter (MF) was used as part of the pre-processing step to eliminate noise from the data. Using ResNet and VGG16, features were extracted from the pre-processed data.

The proposed method was implemented using Python 3.7+ software. A comparison was made between the suggested approach and other conventional algorithms. The results show the proposed method achieved a superior efficiency with regards to recall (98.9 %), accuracy (98.90 %), f1-score (98.5 %), and precision (98.7 %).

The study demonstrated the applicability of the suggested strategy for brain tumor classification. The suggested cognitive computational strategy achieved a promising performance. To reduce the size of the model and implement it on a real-time medical diagnosis framework, we intend to employ knowledge distillation techniques.
