Intelligent Systems in Neuroimaging: Pioneering AI Techniques for Brain Tumor Detection
This study deliberates on the application of advanced AI techniques for brain tumor classification through MRI, wherein the training includes the present best deep learning models to enhance diagnosis accuracy and the potential of usability in clinical practice. By combining custom convolutional models with pre-trained neural network architectures, our approach exposes the utmost performance in the classification of four classes: glioma, meningioma, pituitary tumors, and no-tumor cases. Assessing the models on a large dataset of over 7,000 MRI images focused on detection accuracy, computational efficiency, and generalization to unseen data. The results indicate that the Xception architecture surpasses all other were tested, obtaining a testing accuracy of 98.71% with the least validation loss. While presenting this case with findings that demonstrate AI as a probable scorer in brain tumor diagnosis, we demonstrate further motivation by reducing computational complexity toward real-world clinical deployment. These aspirations offer an abundant future for progress in automated neuroimaging diagnostics.
