Abstract
The goal of this project is to develop an efficient and accurate deep
learning model to detect brain tumors from MRI images. Early detection of
brain tumors is crucial for better prognosis and treatment, and our model
aims to aid radiologists and doctors in diagnosing brain tumors more
quickly and reliably. The project utilizes Convolutional Neural Networks
(CNNs) to analyze MRI images and classify them as either containing a
tumor or being tumor-free.
We will employ a dataset of MRI scans, such as the BraTS dataset, which
provides labeled images with tumors for training and validation. The
images will undergo preprocessing techniques such as resizing,
normalization, and augmentation to ensure that the model generalizes
well across different data variations. Our model will be trained using a
CNN architecture and will focus on binary classification (tumor or no
tumor).
In this project, we aim to achieve high accuracy and minimize false
positives or false negatives, both of which can have critical consequences
in a clinical setting. We will also explore advanced techniques for
improving the model’s robustness, including using pre-trained models
(e.g., VGG16, ResNet) and fine-tuning them to suit the specific nature of
medical images. Ultimately, this tool could be used as an assistive
diagnostic system to help in the early detection of brain tumors and
improve treatment outcomes.
