چکیده
Abstract—Considering the features of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a segmentation method of MRI based on fuzzy Gaussian basis neural network (FGBNN) is proposed. In proposed method, the fuzzy inference is realized by neural network. Gaussian basis function is used as fuzzy membership function, and error backpropagation (BP) algorithm is used to train the neural network. The experimental results show that the proposed method has higher segmentation precision and faster network learning speed than the segmentation method based on traditional radial basis function neural network (RBFNN).

Neural Network-Based Learning Kernel for Automatic Segmentation of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions on Magnetic Resonance Images
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a degenerative disease of central nervous system. MS patients have some dead tissues in their brains called MS lesions. MRI is an imaging technique sensitive to soft tissues such as brain that shows MS lesions as hyper-intense or hypo-intense signals. Since manual segmentation of these lesions is a laborious and time consuming task, automatic segmentation ...

MRI Segmentation assumes great importance research and clinical applications. There are many methods that exist to segment the brain. Of these, conventional methods that use pure image processing techniques are not preferred because they need human interaction for accurate and reliable segmentation. Unsupervised methods, on the other hand, do not require any human interference and can segment t...
