DACBT: deep learning approach for classification of brain tumors using MRI data in IoT healthcare environment

Sci Rep. 2022 Sep 12;12(1):15331. doi: 10.1038/s41598-022-19465-1.

Abstract

The classification of brain tumors (BT) is significantly essential for the diagnosis of Brian cancer (BC) in IoT-healthcare systems. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques based on Computer aided diagnostic systems (CADS) are mostly used for the accurate detection of brain cancer. However, due to the inaccuracy of artificial diagnostic systems, medical professionals are not effectively incorporating them into the diagnosis process of Brain Cancer. In this research study, we proposed a robust brain tumor classification method using Deep Learning (DL) techniques to address the lack of accuracy issue in existing artificial diagnosis systems. In the design of the proposed approach, an improved convolution neural network (CNN) is used to classify brain tumors employing brain magnetic resonance (MR) image data. The model classification performance has improved by incorporating data augmentation and transfer learning methods. The results confirmed that the model obtained high accuracy compared to the baseline models. Based on high predictive results we suggest the proposed model for brain cancer diagnosis in IoT-healthcare systems.
