Detecting and predicting tumours is essential in today's world, yet managing these diseases poses a considerable challenge. Among the various modalities, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been extensively exploited for diagnosing tumours. The traditional methods for predicting survival are based on handcrafted features from MRI and clinical information, which is generally subjective and laborious. This paper devises a new method named, Deep Residual PyramidNet (DRP_Net) for BT classification and survival prediction. The input MRI image is primarily derived from the BraTS dataset. Then, image enhancement is done to improve the quality of images using homomorphic filtering. Next, deep joint segmentation is used to process the tumourtumour region segmentation. Consequently, Haar wavelet and Local Directional Number Pattern (LDNP) based feature extraction is mined. Afterward, BT classification is achieved through DRP_Net, which is a fusion of Deep Residual Network (DRN) and PyramidNet. At last, the survival prediction is accomplished by employing the Deep Recurrent Neural Network (DRNN). Furthermore, DRP_Net has attained superior performance with a True Negative Rate (TNR) of 91.99%, an accuracy of 90.18%, and True Positive Rate (TPR) of 91.08%.</p>","PeriodicalId":54735,"journal":{"name":"Network-Computation in Neural Systems","volume":" ","pages":"1-37"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144055923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the proposed approach, initially, sensor nodes and field dimensions are initialized. Then, K-means clustering is applied to grouping nodes. The Deep Q-Net model is used to predict energy levels of nodes. CH is selected as per the node having higher energy. Multipath routing is performed through the HBWCO algorithm, which optimally selects the best routing paths by considering factors like reliability, residual energy, predicted energy, throughput, and traffic intensity. If link breakage occurs, a route maintenance phase is initiated using Source Link Breakage Warning (SLBW) message strategy to notify the source node about the issue of choosing another path. This work offers a comprehensive approach to enhancing energy efficiency in networks. The suggested HBWCO approach is in contrast to the traditional methods. The HBWCO approach has achieved the highest reliability of 0.948 and the highest throughput of 3496.
