Detection of Brain Tumors from MRI using Gaussian RBF kernel based Support Vector Machine

چکیده
The Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a powerful classification technique that has been used extensively in the field of medical imaging. A model based on SVM with Gaussian RBF kernel is proposed here for the automatic detection of brain tumor from MRI images. Various textural characteristics of the MRI images of human brain are extracted to construct a feature set. These features sets are then used to train the classifier. The results obtained are compared with another powerful efficient classifier AdaBoost. AdaBoost classifies data according to the law of majority vote by base classifiers (ensemble learning). The comparative results show that though the difference between the performance measures is marginal, SVM gives higher precision and low error rates.

متن کاملMODELING OF FLOW NUMBER OF ASPHALT MIXTURES USING A MULTI–KERNEL BASED SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINE APPROACH
Flow number of asphalt–aggregate mixtures as an explanatory factor has been proposed in order to assess the rutting potential of asphalt mixtures. This study proposes a multiple–kernel based support vector machine (MK–SVM) approach for modeling of flow number of asphalt mixtures. The MK–SVM approach consists of weighted least squares–support vector machine (WLS–SVM) integrating two kernel funct...
