Deep learning architectures for the analysis and classification of brain tumors in MR images

The need to make timely and accurate diagnoses of brain diseases has posed challenges to computer-aided diagnosis systems. In this field, advances in deep learning techniques play an important role, as they carry out processes to extract relevant anatomical and functional characteristics of the tissues to classify them. In this paper, the study of various architectures of convolutional neural networks (CNN) is presented, with the aim of classifying three types of brain tumors in high-contrast magnetic resonance images. The architectures of the present study were VGG-16, ResNet-50, Xception, whose implementations are defined in the Keras framework. The evaluation of these architectures were preceded by data augmentation techniques and transfer learning, which improved the effectiveness of the training process, thanks to the use of pre-trained models with the ImageNet dataset. The VGG-16 architecture was the one with the best performance, with an accuracy of 98.04%, followed by ResNet-50 with 94.89%, and finally, Xception with 92.18%. © 2020 SPIE
