Deep learning based two-way feature depiction model for brain tumor detection

Brain tumors are one of the most fatal disorders that cause one of the highest mortalities in the world. Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors originating from glial cells in the central nervous system. Traditionally, a tissue sample is extracted and examined for its genetic and characteristic properties. This method is invasive, painful, and takes a longer period to produce results. Various automatic Deep learning (DL) based schemes have been presented for the brain glioma detection, but they lack due to poor explainability, lower generalization, poor feature depiction, class imbalance problem and lower detection rate. This paper presents a deep learning based brain tumor detection using two way feature depiction model (TWFDM) that combines the 2D-Deep Convolution Neural Network (DCNN) and 1D-DCNN. The 2D-DCNN accepts the raw MRI images and the 1D-DCNN accepts the handcrafted local binary pattern (LBP), gray level cooccurrence matrix (GLCM), and Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) features. Furthermore, improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) is used for feature selection to minimize the computational complexity of the TWFDM system. The proposed TWFDM achieves an overall accuracy of 96.25%, a recall of 96.34%, a precision of 96.31%, and an F1-score of 96.32% on the Brain MRI dataset for four-class classification, representing an important improvement over traditional techniques.
