Background:

Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images often suffer from noise, weak boundaries, and artifacts due to Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) imaging complexities.
Accurate processing of these images is crucial for reliable brain disease diagnosis and prediction.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and evaluate a novel fuzzy system-based medical image processing model for enhanced brain disease prediction.
To improve upon existing fuzzy clustering algorithms for better performance in brain MRI analysis.

Main Methods:

A brain image processing and disease diagnosis prediction model integrating improved fuzzy clustering with a Hybrid Pyramid U-Net Model (HPU-Net) was designed.
The model's performance was validated using brain MRI images and compared against Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), Local Density Clustering Fuzzy C-Means (LDCFCM), and Adaptive Fuzzy C-Means (AFCM).

Main Results:

The proposed algorithm demonstrated superior performance with more nodes, lower energy consumption, and stable changes compared to other models.
It achieved the fastest data transmission tasks (average 4.5s) and highest prediction accuracy for Whole Tumor segmentation (Dice Similarity Coefficient of 0.936, Jaccard coefficient of 0.845).

Conclusions:

The developed algorithm offers higher accuracy, improved denoising, and superior segmentation and recognition effects for brain images while maintaining energy efficiency.
This provides a strong experimental basis for feature recognition and predictive diagnosis in brain imaging analysis.
