Brain tumor is a malformed growth of cells within brain which may be
cancerous or non-cancerous. The term ‘malformed’ indicates the existence of tumor. The
tumor may be benign or malignant and it needs medical support for further classification.
Brain tumor must be detected, diagnosed and evaluated in earliest stage. The medical
problems become grave if tumor is detected at the later stage. Out of various technologies
available for diagnosis of brain tumor, MRI is the preferred technology which enables the
diagnosis and evaluation of brain tumor. The current work presents various clustering
techniques that are employed to detect brain tumor. The classification involves classification
of images into normal and malformed (if detected the tumor). The algorithm deals with
steps such as preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction and classification of MR brain
images. Finally, the confirmatory step is specifying the tumor area by technique called
region of interest.
DETECTING BRAIN TUMOUR FROM MRI IMAGE USING MATLAB GUI PROGRAMMEIJCSES Journal
Engineers have been actively developing tools to detect tumors and to process medical images. Medical image segmentation is a powerful tool that is often used to detect tumors. Many scientists and researchers are working to develop and add more features to this tool. This project is about detecting Brain tumors from MRI images using an interface of GUI in Matlab. Using the GUI, this program can use various combinations of segmentation, filters, and other image processing algorithms to achieve the best results.
We start with filtering the image using Prewitt horizontal edge-emphasizing filter. The next step for detecting tumor is "watershed pixels." The most important part of this project is that all the Matlab programs work with GUI “Matlab guide”. This allows us to use various combinations of filters, and other
image processing techniques to arrive at the best result that can help us detect brain tumors in their early stages.
Brain tumor detection and localization in magnetic resonance imagingijitcs
A tumor also known as neoplasm is a growth in the abnormal tissue which can be differentiated from the
surrounding tissue by its structure. A tumor may lead to cancer, which is a major leading cause of death and
responsible for around 13% of all deaths world-wide. Cancer incidence rate is growing at an alarming rate
in the world. Great knowledge and experience on radiology are required for accurate tumor detection in
medical imaging. Automation of tumor detection is required because there might be a shortage of skilled
radiologists at a time of great need. We propose an automatic brain tumor detectionand localization
framework that can detect and localize brain tumor in magnetic resonance imaging. The proposed brain
tumor detection and localization framework comprises five steps: image acquisition, pre-processing, edge
detection, modified histogram clustering and morphological operations. After morphological operations,
tumors appear as pure white color on pure black backgrounds. We used 50 neuroimages to optimize our
system and 100 out-of-sample neuroimages to test our system. The proposed tumor detection and localization
system was found to be able to accurately detect and localize brain tumor in magnetic resonance imaging.
The preliminary results demonstrate how a simple machine learning classifier with a set of simple
image-based features can result in high classification accuracy. The preliminary results also demonstrate the
efficacy and efficiency of our five-step brain tumor detection and localization approach and motivate us to
extend this framework to detect and localize a variety of other types of tumors in other types of medical
imagery.

The impact of digital image processing is increasing by the day for its use in the medical and research areas. Medical image classification scheme has been on the increase in order to help physicians and medical practitioners in their evaluation and analysis of diseases. Several classification schemes such as Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Bayes Classification, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and K-Means Nearest Neighbor have been used. In this paper, we evaluate and compared the performance of SVM and PCA by analyzing diseased image of the brain (Alzheimer) and normal (MRI) brain. The results show that Principal Components Analysis outperforms the Support Vector Machine in terms of training time and recognition time.

A Survey on Segmentation Techniques Used For Brain Tumor DetectionEditor IJMTER
In recent years Brain tumor is one of the most commonly found causes for death among
children and adults. Early detection of tumor is a must in order to reduce the death rate. For tumor
detection various image techniques can be used. In this paper we mainly concentrate on the images
obtained from MRI scans. In MRI images, the tumor may appear clearly, but for further treatment
the physician need to be a qualified and well experienced person. In order to help the radiologist in
detection computer-aided diagnosis was developed. The generation of a CAD system consists of
several processes and among them segmentation is considered to the most important process. Image
Segmentation is a process of partitioning an image into multiple segments. The main objective of
segmentation is to represent the image into a simplified form so as to increase the efficiency and
accuracy of the system. Therefore the segmentation of brain tumor can be considered as an important
role in the medical image process. Hence in this paper we concentrate on the recently used
segmentation techniques for the detection of tumor using MRI images.
Today, computer aided system is widely used in various fields. Among them, the brain tumor detection is an important task in medical image processing. Early diagnosis of brain tumors plays an important role in improving treatment possibilities and increases the survival rate of the patients. Manual segmentation of brain tumors for cancer diagnosis, from large amount of Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI images generated in clinical routine, is a difficult and time consuming task or even generates errors. So, the automatic brain tumor segmentation is needed to segment tumor. The purpose of the thesis is to detect the brain tumor quickly and accurately from the MRI brain image. In the system, the average filter is used to remove noise and make smooth an input MRI image and threshold segmentation is applied to segment tumor region from MRI brain images. Region properties method is used to detect the tumor region exactly. And then, the equation of the tumor region in the system is effectively applied in any shape of the tumor region.

Now-a-days, Internet has become an important part of human’s life, a person
can shop, invest, and perform all the banking task online. Almost, all the organizations have
their own website, where customer can perform all the task like shopping, they only have to
provide their credit card details. Online banking and e-commerce organizations have been
experiencing the increase in credit card transaction and other modes of on-line transaction.
Due to this credit card fraud becomes a very popular issue for credit card industry, it causes
many financial losses for customer and also for the organization. Many techniques like
Decision Tree, Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithm based on modern techniques like
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Fuzzy Logic have been already developed for
credit card fraud detection. In this paper, an evolutionary Simulated Annealing algorithm is
used to train the Neural Networks for Credit Card fraud detection in real-time scenario.
This paper shows how this technique can be used for credit card fraud detection and
present all the detailed experimental results found when using this technique on real world
financial data (data are taken from UCI repository) to show the effectiveness of this
technique. The algorithm used in this paper are likely beneficial for the organizations and
for individual users in terms of cost and time efficiency. Still there are many cases which are
misclassified i.e. A genuine customer is classified as fraud customer or vise-versa.
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) have been widely used in various applications.
In these networks nodes collect data from the attached sensors and send their data to a base
station. However, nodes in WSN have limited power supply in form of battery so the nodes
are expected to minimize energy consumption in order to maximize the lifetime of WSN. A
number of techniques have been proposed in the literature to reduce the energy
consumption significantly. In this paper, we propose a new clustering based technique
which is a modification of the popular LEACH algorithm. In this technique, first cluster
heads are elected using the improved LEACH algorithm as usual, and then a cluster of
nodes is formed based on the distance between node and cluster head. Finally, data from
node is transferred to cluster head. Cluster heads forward data, after applying aggregation,
to the cluster head that is closer to it than sink in forward direction or directly to the sink.
This reduction in distance travelled improves the performance over LEACH algorithm
significantly.
The next generation wireless networks comprises of mobile users moving
between heterogeneous networks, using terminals with multiple access interfaces and
services. The most important issue in such environment is ABC (Always Best Connected) i.e.
allowing the best connectivity to applications anywhere at any time. For always best
connectivity requirement various vertical handover strategies for decision making have
been proposed. This paper provides an overview of the most interesting and recent
strategies.
This paper presents the design and performance comparison of a two stage
operational amplifier topology using CMOS and BiCMOS technology. This conventional op
amp circuit was designed by using RF model of BSIM3V3 in 0.6 μm CMOS technology and
0.35 μm BiCMOS technology. Both the op amp circuits were designed and simulated,
analyzed and performance parameters are compared. The performance parameters such as
gain, phase margin, CMRR, PSRR, power consumption etc achieved are compared. Finally,
we conclude the suitability of CMOS technology over BiCMOS technology for low power
RF design.
In Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN), Cooperative Spectrum Sensing (CSS) is
used to improve performance of spectrum sensing techniques used for detection of licensed
(Primary) user’s signal. In CSS, the spectrum sensing information from multiple unlicensed
(Secondary) users are combined to take final decision about presence of primary signal. The
mixing techniques used to generate final decision about presence of PU’s signal are also
called as Fusion techniques / rules. The fusion techniques are further classified as data
fusion and decision fusion techniques. In data fusion technique all the secondary users
(SUs) share their raw information of spectrum detection like detected energy or other
statistical information, while in decision fusion technique all the SUs take their local
decisions and share the decision by sending ‘0’ or ‘1’ corresponding to absence and presence
of PU’s signal respectively. The rules used in decision fusion techniques are OR rule, AND
rule and K-out-of-N rule. The CSS is further classified as distributed CSS and centralized
CSS. In distributed CSS all the SUs share the spectrum detection information with each
other and by mixing the shared information; all the SUs take final decision individually. In
centralized CSS all the SUs send their detected information to a secondary base station /
central unit which combines the shared information and takes final decision. The secondary
base station shares the final decision with all the SUs in the CRN. This paper covers
overview of information fusion methods used for CSS and analysis of decision fusion rules
with simulation results.
ZigBee has been developed to support lower data rates and low power consuming
applications. This paper targets to analyze various parameters of ZigBee physical (PHY).
Performance of ZigBee PHY is evaluated on the basis of energy consumption in
transmitting and receiving mode and throughput. Effect of variation in network size is
studied on these performance attributes. Some modulation schemes are also compared and
the best modulation scheme is suggested with tradeoffs between different performance
metrics.

A rapid progress is seen in the field of robotics both in educational and industrial
automation sectors. The Robotics education in particular is gaining technological advances
and providing more learning opportunities. In automotive sector, there is a necessity and
demand to automate daily human activities by robot. With such an advancement and
demand for robotics, the realization of a popular computer game will help students to learn
and acquire skills in the field of robotics. The computer game such as Pacman offers
challenges on both software and hardware fronts. In software, it provides challenges in
developing algorithms for a robot to escape from the pool of attacking robots and to develop
algorithms for multiple ghost robots to attack the Pacman. On the hardware front, it
provides a challenge to integrate various systems to realize the game. This project aims to
demonstrate the pacman game in real world as well as in simulation. For simulation
purpose Player/Stage is used to develop single-client and multi-client architectures. The
multi- client architecture in player/stage uses one global simulation proxy to which all the
robot models are connected. This reduces the overhead to manage multiple robots proxy.
The single-client architecture enables only two robot models to connect to the simulation
proxy. Multi-client approach offers flexibility to add sensors to each port which will be used
distinctly by the client attached to the respective robot. The robots are named as Pacman
and Ghosts, which try to escape and attack respectively. Use of Network Camera has been
done to detect the global positions of the robots and data is shared through inter-process
communication.
In Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems, the visual contents of the
images in the database are took out and represented by multi-dimensional characteristic
vectors. A well known CBIR system that retrieves images by unsupervised method known
as cluster based image retrieval system. For enhancing the performance and retrieval rate
of CBIR system, we fuse the visual contents of an image. Recently, we developed two
cluster-based CBIR systems by fusing the scores of two visual contents of an image. In this
paper, we analyzed the performance of the two recommended CBIR systems at different
levels of precision using images of varying sizes and resolutions. We also compared the
performance of the recommended systems with that of the other two existing CBIR systems
namely UFM and CLUE. Experimentally, we find that the recommended systems
outperform the other two existing systems and one recommended system also comparatively
performed better in every resolution of image.
Information Systems and Networks are subjected to electronic attacks. When
network attacks hit, organizations are thrown into crisis mode. From the IT department to
call centers, to the board room and beyond, all are fraught with danger until the situation is
under control. Traditional methods which are used to overcome these threats (e.g. firewall,
antivirus software, password protection etc.) do not provide complete security to the system.
This encourages the researchers to develop an Intrusion Detection System which is capable
of detecting and responding to such events. This review paper presents a comprehensive
study of Genetic Algorithm (GA) based Intrusion Detection System (IDS). It provides a
brief overview of rule-based IDS, elaborates the implementation issues of Genetic Algorithm
and also presents a comparative analysis of existing studies.
Step by step operations by which we make a group of objects in which attributes
of all the objects are nearly similar, known as clustering. So, a cluster is a collection of
objects that acquire nearly same attribute values. The property of an object in a cluster is
similar to other objects in same cluster but different with objects of other clusters.
Clustering is used in wide range of applications like pattern recognition, image processing,
data analysis, machine learning etc. Nowadays, more attention has been put on categorical
data rather than numerical data. Where, the range of numerical attributes organizes in a
class like small, medium, high, and so on. There is wide range of algorithm that used to
make clusters of given categorical data. Our approach is to enhance the working on well-
known clustering algorithm k-modes to improve accuracy of algorithm. We proposed a new
approach named “High Accuracy Clustering Algorithm for Categorical datasets”.
A Proxy signature scheme enables a proxy signer to sign a message on behalf of
the original signer. In this paper, we propose ECDLP based solution for chen et. al [1]
scheme. We describe efficient and secure Proxy multi signature scheme that satisfy all the
proxy requirements and require only elliptic curve multiplication and elliptic curve addition
which needs less computation overhead compared to modular exponentiations also our
scheme is withstand against original signer forgery and public key substitution attack.
Water marking has been proposed as a method to enhance data security. Text
water marking requires extreme care when embedding additional data within the images
because the additional information must not affect the image quality. Digital water marking
is a method through which we can authenticate images, videos and even texts. Add text
water mark and image water mark to your photos or animated image, protect your
copyright avoid unauthorized use. Water marking functions are not only authentication, but
also protection for such documents against malicious intentions to change such documents
or even claim the rights of such documents. Water marking scheme that hides water
marking in method, not affect the image quality. In this paper method of hiding a data using
LSB replacement technique is proposed.
Today among various medium of data transmission or storage our sensitive data
are not secured with a third-party, that we used to take help of. Cryptography plays an
important role in securing our data from malicious attack. This paper present a partial
image encryption based on bit-planes permutation using Peter De Jong chaotic map for
secure image transmission and storage. The proposed partial image encryption is a raw data
encryption method where bits of some bit-planes are shuffled among other bit-planes based
on chaotic maps proposed by Peter De Jong. By using the chaotic behavior of the Peter De
Jong map the position of all the bit-planes are permuted. The result of the several
experimental, correlation analysis and sensitivity test shows that the proposed image
encryption scheme provides an efficient and secure way for real-time image encryption and
decryption.

Wimax technology has reshaped the framework of broadband wireless internet
service. It provides the internet service to unconnected or detached areas such as east South
Africa, rural areas of America and Asia region. Full duplex helpers employed with one of
the relay stations selection and indexing method that is Randomized Distributed Space Time
are used to expand the coverage area of primary Wimax station. The basic problem was
identified at cell edge due to weather conditions (rain, fog), insertion of destruction because
of multiple paths in the same communication channel and due to interference created by
other users in that communication. It is impractical task for the receiver station to decode
the transmitted signal successfully at the cell edges, which increases the high packet loss and
retransmissions. But Wimax is a outstanding technology which is used for improving the
quality of internet service and also it offers various services like Voice over Internet
Protocol, Video conferencing and Multimedia broadcast etc where a little delay in packet
transmission can cause a big loss in the communication. Even setup and initialization of
another Wimax station nearer to each other is not a good alternate, where any mobile
station can easily handover to another base station if it gets a strong signal from other one.
But in rural areas, for few numbers of customers, installation of base station nearer to each
other is costlier task. In this review article, we present a scheme using R-DSTC technique to
choose and select helpers (relay nodes) randomly to expand the coverage area and help to
mobile station as a helper to provide secure communication with base station. In this work,
we use full duplex helpers for better utilization of bandwidth.
Radio Frequency identification (RFID) technology has become emerging
technique for tracking and items identification. Depend upon the function; various RFID
technologies could be used. Drawback of passive RFID technology, associated to the range
of reading tags and assurance in difficult environmental condition, puts boundaries on
performance in the real life situation [1]. To improve the range of reading tags and
assurance, we consider implementing active backscattering tag technology. For making
mobiles of multiple radio standards in 4G network; the Software Defined Radio (SDR)
technology is used. Restrictions in Existing RFID technologies and SDR technology, can be
eliminated by the development and implementation of the Software Defined Radio (SDR)
active backscattering tag compatible with the EPC global UHF Class 1 Generation 2 (Gen2)
RFID standard. Such technology can be used for many of applications and services.
Vehicle technology has increased rapidly in recent years, particularly in relation
to braking system and sensing system. In parallel to the development of braking
technologies, sensors have been developed that are capable of detecting physical obstacles,
other vehicles or pedestrians around the vehicle. This development prevents accidents of
vehicles using Stereo Multi-Purpose cameras, Automated Emergency Braking Systems and
Ultrasonic Sensors. The stereo multi-purpose camera provides spatial intelligence of up to
50 metres in front of the vehicle and there is an environment recognition of 500 metres.
Cars can automatically brake due to obstacles or any hindrance when the sensor senses the
obstacles. The braking circuit function is to brake the car automatically after receiving
signal from the sensors. All cars are competent in applying brakes automatically to a
maximum extent of deceleration of 0.4g. Integrated safety systems are based on three
principles. They are: collision avoidance, collision mitigation braking systems and forward
collision warning.

For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

preprocessed properly. Preprocessing includes removal of unwanted parts of MR brain images such as film
artifacts, Skull part of brain, noise etc. Segmentation is an important process in most medical image analysis
[5]. It is very difficult to conduct surgery without exact knowledge of shape, size and location of tumor in
brain. Clustering is the appropriate method for biomedical image processing since the approximate or exact
number of clusters in images of various organs of body is known. Different clustering algorithms are
employed for extraction of tumor region. Some algorithms are automatic while some are manual.
In this system, various clustering algorithms are applied on MR brain images. After the clustering process,
the cluster containing the tumor is selected as the primary segment. Histogram clustering is applied to
eliminate the pixels which are not related to the tumor pixels.
II. LITERATURE REVIEW
Various pre-processing and segmentation techniques are cited in literature for medical image processing [5].
Pre-processing techniques comprise de-noising the image, removal of unwanted parts, enhancement etc.
Gaussian filters and bilateral filters give good results in smooth area of image [2, 3 and 4]. But edges and
textures get blurred due to these filters. Intermediate gray levels are produced across edges when low pass
filter is used to smooth black-and-white images, thus produces blurred images. Many papers given in the
literature explains about the tracking algorithm. Weighted median (WM) filters are the extension of median
filters, which exploits rank-order information and spatial information of input signal [6].
Segmentation techniques based on thresholding are simple and effective for images with different intensities
[7, 8, 9 and 10]. However these methods fail for multichannel images. There were many attempts to correct
these problems but there are some factors that can complicate the thresholding operation, for example,
busyness of gray levels within the object and its background, inadequate contrast etc [15]. Segmentation by
region growing is also effective method but not fully automatic as it requires user interaction [11, 12]. Some
fully automatic algorithms are available but they perform poor on natural images. Brain tumor and tissue
segmentation in MR images have been always an important area of research. Extraction of good features is
fundamental need of successful image segmentation [13]. Edge detection based segmentation using various
gradient operators such as Sobel’s operator, Prewitt’s operator is discussed in [14]. Some approaches follow
the process sequence as image sharpening and then segmentation algorithms [16].
III. PROPOSED METHODOLOGY- PRE-PROCESSING
Pre-processing incorporates stages as shown in flow chart in Fig. 1.
Figure 1.Flow chart of pre-processing stage
A. Image Acquisition
MR brain images can be obtained from intra-operative magnetic resonance scanner. There are many such
systems available. Among these systems, the 0.5T intra-operative magnetic resonance scanner acquires 256 x
256 x 58(0.86mm, 0.86mm, 2.5 mm) T1 weighted images. The intra-operatively acquired 256 x 256 slice has
quality similar to the images acquired with a 1.5T conventional scanner, but the downside of these images is
that the slice remains thick (2.5 mm). Even though images do not show hefty distortion, images can suffer
3. 301
from artifacts due to different factors (surgical instruments, hand movement, radio frequency noise from
bipolar coagulation). Nowadays it is possible to acquire images with very limited artifacts during
neurosurgical scanning.
Brain image obtained by MRI scan is read and stored as 2-D array of pixels in MATLAB v2012b. In this
system, images displayed are of size 256 x 256 pixels. A grayscale image has intensity values between 0 and
255, with 255 corresponding to white and 0 to black. For black and white images, where intensity values are
integers, the lowest entry corresponds to black, the highest to white. MRI scans are stored in JPEG image
format.
B. Film Artifacts Removal
The MR brain image consists of film artifacts or labels such as patient’s name, age and remarks. Tracking
algorithm is used to remove film artifacts. The major point to be considered is that for T2 weighted MR
image, intensity values of label pixels and tumor region pixels fall in range 200-255 i.e. white color. So there
is possibility of losing tumor region pixel if we apply this algorithm to entire image. To deal with this
problem, pixels in 4 corners of the MR brain image are tracked and algorithm is applied on those pixels only.
To set threshold, given image is raster scanned through each pixel, to analyze the intensity value of the
pixels. All the pixels those are in 4 corners of MR image and having intensity values greater than threshold
value are removed from MRI. This is general algorithm and can be applied to T1 or T2 weighted MR images.
Results are shown in fig. 3.
Algorithm for Film Artifacts Removal
Step 1.The MRI image is read and stored in a two dimensional matrix.
Step 2.Four corners of MR image are tracked. The peak threshold is set for removing white labels in selected
areas.
Step 3.Flag value is set to 1.
Step 4.Pixels with intensity value greater than or equal to 200 are selected.
Step 5.The flag value is set to zero if the intensity value is greater than 200.
Step 6.Otherwise skip to the next pixel.
C. Skull Removal
Skull removal from Brain MRI is an imperative signpost. The technique that is to be used to remove skull,
must be effective, efficient, reliable and fully automated. Many techniques are available for skull removal.
Some techniques are effective but very inefficient and vice versa. In Brain MRI there is a particular intensity
of the back-ground that appears before brain image. Unfortunately in brain MRI, the same intensity is
appeared as a part of the brain. And this appearance is a false background. So in this scenario that algorithm
would be unable to distinguish between the original back ground and the false background. Eventually the
area around the false background will also be eroded, which causes distortion in the brain tissues along with
the skull. To avoid such distortion, proposed method employs morphological techniques.
The morphological techniques are effective and fully automated but inefficient way of skull removal. Erosion
and Dilation are two fundamental operations in mathematical morphology. These are applied to binary
images, but can also be applied on grayscale images [17]. Morphological image opening i.e. erosion followed
by dilation is performed on film artifacts removed MR image. Erosion is a technique which uses background
and the foreground for the processing. Erosion detects the small gap between skull and brain, refer fig. 4.
Algorithm for skull removal
Step 1.A film artifact removed image is taken as input.
Step 2.Threshold is set to convert the gray scale image into binary image.
Step 3.Appropriate structuring element is selected with suitable parameters.
Step 4.Morphological opening is performed.
IV. PROPOSED METHODOLOGY- CLUSTERING
Clustering is vital technique used in pattern recognition and region based segmentation approaches. Group of
objects which have some similar features between them and are dissimilar to the objects belonging to other
groups is defined as cluster. Clustering can be defined as an unsupervised learning process of organizing
objects into groups whose members possess some similar feature. Proposed methodology follows
Hierarchical and K-means clustering methods to detect tumor.
4. 302
A. Hierarchical Clustering
A method of cluster analysis which looks for building a hierarchy of clusters is termed as Hierarchical
clustering. Two types of Strategies for hierarchical clustering are Agglomerative and Divisive clustering. In
agglomerative clustering each data item is considered as a cluster and clusters are recursively merged to yield
a good clustering. In divisive clustering the entire data set is regarded as a cluster, and then clusters are
recursively split to yield a good clustering. Agglomerative clustering is a “bottom up” strategy while divisive
is a “top down” strategy. Proposed work follows divisive i.e. top down strategy, refer fig. 2. This is a semi-
automatic method as user has to enter the number of iterations to be performed.
Input MR Image is analyzed to study intensity values of all pixels. To find clusters in image, mean of image
is calculated and all pixels are compared with mean value. Some pixels having intensity value less than mean
form one cluster while some pixels having intensity value greater than mean form other cluster. Thus image
is now divided into 2 clusters. Since for T2 weighted image, tumor region falls in white color shade, cluster
of further interest is of pixels having intensity values greater than mean. This cluster is selected and again
same procedure is repeated on it. The number of times procedure to be repeated is taken from user. Results
are shown in fig. 5.
Algorithm for hierarchical clustering
Step 1.A skull removed image is taken as an input. Consider whole image as one cluster.
Step 2.Number of iterations to be performed is taken from user.
Step 3.The image is divided into two clusters by knowledge of most dissimilar points in the image.
Step 4.Repeat step 3 for each cluster.
Step 5.A tree like structure is formed. Repeat step 3 until it reaches level 4.
Figure 2.Divisive clustering i.e. Top down strategy
B. K-Means Clustering
Unsupervised learning techniques require prior knowledge such as number of clusters, probability
distribution etc. K-means clustering is used to divide data into certain number clusters; K. Algorithm assigns
each of data points to one of the K clusters. This assignment is based on Euclidean distance between data
point and mean of the cluster. Data point is assigned to particular cluster whenever Euclidean distance is
minimized.
Proposed methodology uses K=4 clusters for T2 weighted MR images. In T2 weighted MR brain images
there are 4 clusters classified on basis of intensity values of pixels. These clusters are nothing but White
matter (WM), Gray matter (GM), Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and background of MR image. WM, GM, CSF
are constituents of brain. By knowledge of mean of each cluster, each pixel in image is assigned nearest
cluster using Euclidean distance. This procedure is repeated until we get best clusters. Results are shown in
fig. 6.
Algorithm for K-means clustering
Step 1.Initial clusters are chosen according to the gray values of the pixels.
Step 2.Center of each cluster is calculated. This center is used as the new value for the given cluster.
Step 3.Each pixel in the input image is compared against the initial cluster centers using the minimum
Euclidean distance.
5. 303
Step 4.Once the new cluster values have been determined; each pixel is assigned the nearest cluster.
Step 5.The algorithm continues until pixels are no longer changing the cluster which they are associated with
or until none of the cluster values changes by more than a set small amount.

VI. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK

proposed methodology, MR brain images were taken and processed through clustering techniques thus giving
efficient end results for detection of tumors. These techniques give efficient and effective results as compared
to previous researches. These techniques were applied on various images and results were extraordinary.
Proposed research is easy to execute, scalable and can be modified easily.
Future work is to extend our proposed method for Pseudo colour based segmentation of 3D images,
segmentation based on fuzzy logic, tumor detection using support vector machines (SVM) and using wavelet
technique.
