Brain Tumor Segmentation and Classification using Hybrid clustering technique and SVM Classifier

Abstract

Brain tumor Detection is a primary concern in today’s life. So a computer aided technology must be implemented for an accurate detection and identification of brain tumor. The tumor can be detected using various classification techniques from brain MR Images. In this paper segmentation process is being done using K means Clustering technique and Binary Thresholding, the features from the images are then extracted using GLCM where six texture features are extracted and SVM Classifier is being used for classification of the images. This proposed method shows an accuracy of 97.12%.
