Meenu Rohilla, Vinay Singal . Design and Comparative Analysis of SVM and PR Neural Network for Classification of Brain Tumour in MRI. International Journal of Computer Applications. 91, 17 ( April 2014), 15-21. DOI=10.5120/16101-5287
Electroencephalograms (EEGs) or MRI are progressively emerging as a significant measure of brain activity and they possess immense potential for the diagnosis and treatment of mental and brain diseases and abnormalities. This research paper presents an automated system for efficient classification of brain tumours in MRI images using Support Vector Machine (SVM). It works on the principle of a vector which supports in training of classifier using train images. The results obtained from the above method are compared with those obtained from Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). This method uses pattern recognition algorithms for the classification of tumour in MR images. First, a pattern recognition neural network is created and then trained. The trained pattern recognition neural network when fed with a test MR image, effectively classifies the images. The performance analysis shows that qualitative results obtained from the proposed model are comparable with those obtained by ANN. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system in classification of brain tumour in MR images. The implementation is done using MATLAB R2012b using Artificial Neural Network and Image Processing Toolbox.
