This document summarizes a research paper on segmenting and classifying brain tumors in MRI images using cellular automata and neural networks. The researchers first use co-occurrence matrices and run length features to automatically select seed points in abnormal tumor regions. A cellular automata algorithm then performs seeded segmentation on the images to detect and highlight the tumor region. Finally, the images are classified into normal, benign, or malignant categories using texture features and a radial basis function neural network. The neural network approach provides fast and accurate tumor classification compared to other methods. In summary, this paper presents an automatic method for segmenting and classifying brain tumors in MRI images based on cellular automata for segmentation and neural networks for classification.
brain tumor detection by thresholding approachSahil Prajapati
This technical paper proposes a method for detecting tumors in MRI brain images using thresholding and morphological operations. The methodology involves preprocessing images using sharpening filters, histogram equalization, and median filtering. Threshold segmentation is then used to create binary images, and morphological operations like erosion and dilation are applied. Finally, tumor regions are extracted using image subtraction, which removes closely packed pixels. The authors found that this approach, combining thresholding with morphological operations and subtraction, was effective at detecting and segmenting tumor regions in MRI brain images.

Automatic Segmentation of Brachial Artery based on Fuzzy C-Means Pixel Clust...IJECEIAES
Automatic extraction of brachial artery and measuring associated indices such as flow-mediated dilatation and Intima-media thickness are important for early detection of cardiovascular disease and other vascular endothelial malfunctions. In this paper, we propose the basic but important component of such decision-assisting medical software development – noise tolerant fully automatic segmentation of brachial artery from ultrasound images. Pixel clustering with Fuzzy C-Means algorithm in the quantization process is the key component of that segmentation with various image processing algorithms involved. This algorithm could be an alternative choice of segmentation process that can replace speckle noise-suffering edge detection procedures in this application domain.
The document discusses a method for classifying brain tumor images using artificial neural networks. It involves three main steps: 1) preprocessing MRI images using morphological operations to remove noise, 2) extracting texture and statistical features using GLCM and GLRLM techniques, and 3) classifying images using a probabilistic neural network (PNN) and measuring accuracy. Features are extracted from 50 brain tumor images and 65 images are tested, achieving a classification accuracy of up to 98%.

A SIMPLE IMAGE PROCESSING APPROACH TO ABNORMAL SLICES DETECTION FROM MRI TUMO...ijma
This paper proposed a method for brain tumor detection from the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of
human head scans. The proposed work explained the tumor detection process by means of image
processing transformations and thresholding technique. The MRI images are preprocessed by
transformation techniques and thus enhance the tumor region. Then the images are checked for
abnormality using fuzzy symmetric measure (FSM). If abnormal, then Otsu’s thresholding is used to extract
the tumor region. Experiments with the proposed method were done on 17 datasets. Various evaluation
parameters were used to validate the proposed method. The predictive accuracy (PA) and dice coefficient
(DC) values of proposed method reached maximum.
The document outlines the methodology for brain tumor detection from MRI images. It involves four main stages: pre-processing, skull stripping, segmentation, and feature extraction. In pre-processing, MRI images are converted to grayscale and filters are applied to remove noise. Skull stripping removes non-brain tissues. Segmentation uses Otsu's thresholding and watershed methods to separate brain regions. Feature extraction uses morphological operators to extract the tumor region by subtracting it from the original grayscale image.

Literature survey for 3 d reconstruction of brain mri imageseSAT Journals
Abstract
Since Doctors had only the 2D Image Data to visualize the tumors in the MRI images, which never gave the actual feel of how the tumor would exactly look like . The doctors were deprived from the exact visualization of the tumor the amount of the tumor to be removed by operation was not known, which caused a lot of deformation in the faces and structure of the patients face or skull. The diversity and complexity of tumor cells makes it very challenging to visualize tumor present in magnetic resonance image (MRI) data. Hence to visualize the tumor properly 2D MRI image has to be converted to 3D image. With the development of computer image processing technology, three-dimensional (3D) visualization has become an important method of the medical diagnose, it offers abundant and accurate information for medical experts. Three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction of medical images is widely applied to tumor localization; surgical planning and brain electromagnetic field computation etc. The brain MR images have unique characteristics, i.e., very complicated changes of the gray-scales and highly irregular boundaries. Traditional 3-D reconstruction algorithms are challenged in solving this problem. Many reconstruction algorithms, such as marching cubes and dividing cubes, need to establish the topological relationship between the slices of images. The results of these traditional approaches vary depending on the number of input sections, their positions, the shape of the original body and the applied interpolation technique. These make the task tedious and time-consuming. Moreover, satisfied reconstruction result may not even be obtained when the highly irregular objects such as the encephalic tissues are considered. Due to complexity and irregularity of each encephalic tissue boundary, three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction for MRI image is necessary. A Literature survey is done to study different methods of 3D reconstruction of brain images from MRI images. Keywords: 3-D reconstruction, region growing, segmentation method, immune algorithm (IA), one class support vector machine (OCSVM) and sphere shaped support vector machine (SSSVM).

Medical Image segmentation using Image Mining conceptsEditor IJMTER
Image differencing is usually done by subtracting the low-level skin texture like strength
in images that are already associated. This paper extracts high-level skin texture in order to find out
an efficient image differencing method for the analysis of Brain Tumor. On the other hand, this
produces sets of skin texture that are both spatial. We demonstrate a technique that avoids arbitrary
spatial constraints and is robust in the presence of sound, outliers, and imaging artifact, while
outperforming even profitable products in the analysis of Brain Tumor images. First, the landmark
are establish, and then the top entrant are sorted into a end set. Second, the top sets of the two
descriptions are then differenced through a cluster judgment. The symmetry of the human body is
utilized to increase the accuracy of the finding. We imitate this technique in an effort to understand
and ultimately capture the judgment of the radiologist. The image differencing with clustered
contrast process determines the being there of Brain Tumor. Using the most favorable features
extracted from normal and tumor regions of MRI by using arithmetical features, classifiers are used
to categorize and segment the tumor portion in irregular images. Both the difficult and preparation
phase gives the proportion of accuracy on each parameter in neural networks, which gives the idea to
decide the best one to be used in supplementary works. The results showed outperformance of
algorithm when compared with classification accuracy which works as shows potential tool for
classification and requires extension in brain tumor analysis.

This document proposes a novel algorithm to automatically segment overlapped and touching human chromosome images. The algorithm first obtains chromosome contours and calculates a discrete curvature function to identify concave points. Possible separation lines are then plotted by connecting concave points. Segmentation is performed by splitting the overlapped regions along these lines. The algorithm was able to successfully segment overlapped and touching chromosomes without human intervention.
This document provides a literature survey on methods for detecting brain tumors from MRI images. It discusses several segmentation techniques that have been used for this purpose, including thresholding, edge-based, region-based, k-means clustering, fuzzy c-means clustering, and optimization methods like ant colony optimization, genetic algorithms, and particle swarm optimization. The document reviews related work comparing these methods and evaluates their performance based on metrics like PSNR and RMSE. It concludes that while no single universal method exists, fuzzy c-means is well-suited for medical image segmentation tasks due to its simplicity and ability to provide faster clustering.
Comparative performance analysis of segmentation techniquesIAEME Publication
This document compares the performance of several image segmentation techniques: global thresholding, adaptive thresholding, region growing, and level set segmentation. It applies these techniques to medical and synthetic images corrupted with noise and evaluates the segmentation results using binary classification metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and precision. The results show that level set segmentation best preserves object boundaries, adaptive thresholding captures most image details, and global thresholding has the highest success rate at extracting regions of interest. Overall, the study aims to determine the optimal segmentation method for medical images from CT scans.
This document summarizes a research paper on automated brain tumor segmentation using a hierarchical self-organizing map (HSOM) algorithm. The paper proposes using HSOM for magnetic resonance (MR) image segmentation to accurately identify tissue structures and detect tumors. The HSOM algorithm segments the MR image into affected and unaffected cells in two phases - pre-processing to remove noise from the image, followed by applying the HSOM algorithm. Experimental results on test images show the number of affected cells detected and execution time for segmentation using HSOM. The algorithm accurately segments tumors and counts affected cells compared to ground truths.
This document presents a new approach for segmenting skin lesions in dermoscopic images using a fixed-grid wavelet network (FGWN).

Experimental results on 30 images showed the FGWN approach achieved better segmentation accuracy than other methods according to 11 evaluation metrics, extracting lesion boundaries more precisely. In conclusion, the FGWN provides an effective tool for automated skin lesion segmentation in dermoscopy images.

FUZZY SEGMENTATION OF MRI CEREBRAL TISSUE USING LEVEL SET ALGORITHMAM Publications
The current study investigated a median filter with the fuzzy level set method to propose fuzzy segmentation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) cerebral tissue images. An MRI image was used as an input image. A median filter and fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering were utilized to remove image noise and create image clusters, respectively. The image clusters showed initial and final cluster centers. The level set method was then used for segmentation after separating and extracting white matter from gray matter. Fuzzy c-means was sensitive to the choice of the initial cluster center. Improper center selection caused the method to produce suboptimal solutions. The proposed algorithm was successfully utilized to segment MRI cerebral tissue images. The algorithm efficiently performed segmentation of test MRI cerebral tissue images compared with algorithms proposed in previous studies.

MALIGNANT AND BENIGN BRAIN TUMOR SEGMENTATION AND CLASSIFICATION USING SVM WI...sipij
In this article a method is proposed for segmentation and classification of benign and malignant tumor slices in brain Computed Tomography (CT) images. In this study image noises are removed using median and wiener filter and brain tumors are segmented using Support Vector Machine (SVM). Then a two-level discrete wavelet decomposition of tumor image is performed and the approximation at the second level is obtained to replace the original image to be used for texture analysis. Here, 17 features are extracted that 6 of them are selected using Student’s t-test. Dominant gray level run length and gray level co-occurrence texture features are used for SVM training. Malignant and benign tumors are classified using SVM with kernel width and Weighted kernel width (WSVM) and k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) classifier. Classification accuracy of classifiers are evaluated using 10 fold cross validation method. The segmentation results are
also compared with the experienced radiologist ground truth. The experimental results show that the proposed WSVM classifier is able to achieve high classification accuracy effectiveness as measured by sensitivity and specificity.
SEGMENTATION OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE BRAIN TUMOR USING INTEGRATED FUZZY K-MEANS...ijcsit

performance over conventional segmentation techniques such as fuzzy c means (FCM), K-means and even
that of manual segmentation in terms of precision time and accuracy. Simulation performance shows that
the proposed scheme has performed superior to the existing segmentation methods.

Abstract:
Cellular automata (CA) based seeded tumor segmentation method on magnetic resonance (MR)
images, which uses Region of interest and seed selection. The region of tumor is selected from the image for
getting seed point from abnormal region. This seed is selected by finding Co occurrence feature and run length
features. Seed based segmentation is performed in the image for detecting the tumor region by highlighting the
region with the help of level set method. The brain images are classified into three stages Normal, Benign and
Malignant. For this non knowledge based automatic image classification, image texture features and Artificial
Neural Network are employed. The conventional method for medical resonance brain images classification and
tumors detection is by human inspection. Decision making is performed in two stages: Feature extraction using
Gray level Co occurrence matrix and the Classification using Radial basis function which is the type of ANN.
The performance of the ANN classifier is evaluated in terms of training performance and classification
accuracies. Artificial Neural Network gives fast and accurate classification than other neural networks and it is a
promising tool for classification of the tumors.
Segmentation of brain tissues in gray matter, white matter and tumor on medical images is not only of
high interest in serial treatment monitoring of “disease burden” in oncologic imaging, but also gaining
popularity with the advance of image guided surgical approaches. Outlining the brain tumor contour is a major
step in planning spatially localized radiotherapy (e.g., Cyber knife, iMRT) which is usually done manually on
contrast enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance images (MRI) in current clinical practice. On T1 MR
Images acquired after administration of a contrast agent (gadolinium), blood vessels and parts of the tumor,
where the contrast can pass the blood–brain barrier are observed as hyper intense areas. There are various
attempts for brain tumor segmentation in the literature which use a single modality, combine multi modalities
and use priors obtained from population atlases. Using gray scale, spatial information and thresholding method,
region growing was applied to segment the region. The region of tumor is selected from the image for getting
seed point from abnormal region. This seed is selected by finding Co occurrence feature and run length features.
Seed based segmentation is performed in the image for detecting the tumor region by highlighting the region
with the help of level set method.
I. Introduction
Ultrasound image segmentation is a critical issue in medical image analysis and visualization because
these images contain strong speckle noises and attenuation artifacts. It is difficult to properly segment the
interested objects with correct position and shape. In addition, poor image contrast and missing boundaries is a
challenging task. Large numbers of different methods was proposed on ultrasound medical image segmentation.
Some of them use a semi automated approach and need some operator interaction. Others are fully automatic
and the operator has only a verification role. These methods can be represented by threshold based technique,
boundary based methods, region based methods, mixture techniques that combined boundary and region criteria
and active contour based approaches. Threshold technique uses only gray level information and do not consider
the spatial information of the pixels and do not manage well with noise or poor boundaries which generally
encountered in ultrasound images. Boundary based methods use the gradient of pixel values at the boundary
between adjacent regions. In these methods an algorithm searches for pixels with high gradient values that are
usually edge pixels and then tries to connect them to produce a curve which represents a boundary of the object.
But to convert the edge pixels into close boundary is difficult for the ultrasound image segmentation .Region
based segmentation is based on the principle that neighboring pixels within the one region have similar value.
FCM algorithm is best known region based category for the segmentation. These methods affect the results due
to speckle noises in ultrasound images. Another method is active contour method which is suitable for finding
edges of a region whose gray scale intensities are significantly different from the surrounding region in the
image. To segment homogenous regions, the semi automatic region growing methods first requires users to
identify a seed point. In this paper, A full automatic region-growing segmentation technique is proposed. First
we found the seed automatically using textural features from Co-occurrence matrix (COM) and run length
features. Then using gray scale, spatial information and thresholding method, region growing was applied to

segment the region. With the advances in imaging technology, diagnostic imaging has become an indispensable
tool in medicine today. X-ray angiography (XRA), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and other imaging modalities are heavily used in
clinical practice. Such images provide complementary information about the patient. While increased size and
volume in medical images required the automation of the diagnosis process, the latest advances in computer
technology and reduced costs have made it possible to develop such systems. Blood vessel delineation on
medical images forms an essential step in solving several practical applications such as diagnosis of the vessels
(e.g. stenosis or malformations) and registration of patient images obtained at different times. Segmentation
algorithms form the essence of medical image applications such as radiological diagnostic systems, multimodal
image registration, creating anatomical atlases, visualization, and computer-aided surgery.
2. Automatic Selection Seed Point
In this section we describe the method for automatic selection of abnormal region from ultrasound
image using Co occurrence matrix probability feature and run length method
3. Co-Occurrence Matrix Probability Feature
A Co-Occurrence Matrix (COM) is square matrices of relative frequencies P (i, j, d, Ɵ) with which two
neighboring pixels separated by distance d at orientation _ occur in the image, one with gray level i and the
other with gray level j “Fig. 1” [6]. A COM is therefore a square matrix that has the size of the largest pixel
value in the image and presents the relative frequency distributions of gray levels and describe how often one
gray level will appear in a specified spatial relationship to another gray level within each image region. Fig 3.1.
Co occurrence matrix with its orientations There are 14 features that may be extracted from COM matrix, but
usually 4 or 5 features are more interested ones. In this paper 2 textural features were calculated from the COM
for direction h values of 0° and a distance d of 1. The matrix was normalized by the following function:
R is the normalized function, which is usually set as the sum of the matrix.
For example; with an 8 grey-level image representation and a vector t that considers only one neighbor, we
would find [1]:
Fig 3.2 Image example
Fig 3.3 Classical Co-occurrence matrix
3. Image Segmentation And Classification…
325
||Issn||2250-3005|| (Online) ||March||2013|| ||www.ijceronline.com||
In this work the co-occurrence features energy and entropy which can easily differentiate non-homogeneous
region from homogeneous region are considered. Energy is called Angular Second Moment. It is a measure the
homogeneousness of the image and can be calculated from the normalized COM. It is a suitable measure for
detection of disorder in texture image. Higher values for this feature mean that less changes in the image
amplitude or intensity result in a much sparser COM. The energy is formulated by the following equation:
Entropy gives a measure of complexity of the image. Complex textures tend to have higher entropy. Entropy is
represented by the following equation
The value of energy and entropy are high for homogeneous regions and low for non-homogeneous regions. The
abnormal region in the ultrasound images appears to be homogeneous. So these parameters can identify a seed
pixel from the abnormal regions. Some cases the seed pixel is selected from the normal region which appears to
be homogeneous. This draw back can be avoided by the calculating run length features that will describe in next
section.
4. Gray Level Runlength Features
Run length features are based on computation of continuous probability of the length and gray level of
the primitive in the texture. After the selection of seed pixel from co-occurrence features, we can check whether
the selected seed pixel belongs to abnormal region or not. This can be checked by calculating the Run length
features. These features are calculated from the Run length matrix P (i, j) which describes the number of times
that the image contains a run of length j in a given direction consisting of points having gray level i.
The following two features that give the good difference between homogeneous and non-homogeneous regions
are considered.
Long run emphasis
Run length Non Uniformity
That P (i, j) is run length matrix, G denotes number of gray levels and R is longest run. The long run length
emphasis is high for homogeneous region and low for non homogeneous region and the run length non
uniformity is low for ,homogeneous and high for non homogeneous. The run length features have been
calculated around the points selected by co occurrence features. If all the run length features of selected point
and its neighborhood points are equal then the point is considered as a seed point.
5. CA ALGORITHM BASED ON SEED BASED SELECTION
A cellular automata is basically a computer algorithm that is discrete in space and time and operates on a
lattice of cells. Since it was first proposed by Von Neumann and Ulam, Cellular Automata has attracted
researchers from various fields in both physical and social sciences because of its simplicity, and potential in
modeling complex systems. Each individual cell is in a specific state and changes synchronously depending on
the states of some neighbors as determined by a local update rule. They are parallel, local and homogeneous,
since the state of any cell depends only on the states of the local neighbors at the previous time step and the
update rules are same for every cell.

Formally, a cellular automaton (CA) is a triple A=(S, N, δ), where is a nonempty set, called the state set, N is the
neighborhood, and δ: SN
→S is the neighborhood; SN
, which is the argument of, indicates the states of the
neighborhood cells at a given time, while, which is its value, is the state of the central cell at the next time step.
Although the usual definition for “Cellular Automata” is in favor of a finite state set (discrete and bounded),
continuous state sets in which the states are real numbers are also used in CA literature under the name
“Continuous CA” or “Coupled Map Lattices”. A detailed discussion and some of the issues that can arise while
using a continuous state set on a finite machine. There are various attempts of using CA in image processing
problems including: image enhancement (sharpening and smoothing), image filtering, edge detection and image
segmentation (Grow-cut).Grow-cut method uses a continuous state cellular automaton to interactively label
images using user supplied seeds. The cells are corresponding to image pixels, and the feature vector is RGB or
gray scale intensities. The state set for each image pixel consists of a “strength” value in a continuous
interval [0,1] , a label and an image feature vector The automat a label and an image feature vector . The
automata are initialized by assigning corresponding labels at seeds with a strength value between 0 and 1 where
a higher value reflects a higher confidence in choosing the seed. Strengths for unlabeled cells are set to 0.
Where g is a pixel similarity function bounded to [0, 1] depending on the image features i.e.,
Where the argument x is for instance, the absolute difference between the intensities of two neighboring pixels.
The surprising success of this simple algorithm, especially on medical images, motivated us to further analyze
the algorithm. We showed that the result of the iterations of this algorithm converges to that of the shortest paths
algorithm by modifying the similarity function used: g(x) =. We note that, the original similarity function used
in Grow-cut is a first order approximation to the one we utilized. In connecting shortest paths to cellular
automata framework, maximizing the product of the edge weight ωij was shown to be equivalent to minimizing
the sum of the –log ωij’s s, i.e.,|| ij||’s resulting in the shortest ath
between a seed node to any non seed node in
the graph over the negative logarithm edge weights.
These weights can be interpreted similarly to the reciprocal weight ωij defined in Sinop and Grady,
which was shown to infer a connection between the shortest path algorithm and the general seeded segmentation
optimization with L∞ norm minimization. Simultaneously and independently from our work, it has also been
shown that the Grow-cut algorithm is equivalent to the Belman–Ford algorithm, which calculates the shortest
paths on a weighted graph. However, there, the motivation and emphasis was on fast hardware implementation
of the CA algorithms, due both increasing availability of low-cost graphical hardware (GPUs), and CA
algorithm’s suitability to run on parallel processors. Shortest path idea was utilized in other works such as,
where the Eikonal equation was solved with two different boundary conditions constructed from foreground and
background seeds. Image-dependent speed functions were inserted into the right hand side of the Eikonal
equation, whose solutions led to two distance functions: shortest paths of each pixel from the foreground seeds
and the background seeds. For each pixel, the smaller distance to the foreground seeds produced the resulting
segmentation.
The grow cut method, first find the maximum intensity variation which means that from this intensity
to 0 we are sure that this is not the ROI. Second we cut the histogram from MAX to 0. Then, find the threshold
from MAX to the highest intensity which separates the uncertainty area from the ROI. This is simply done using
the well-known Otsu thresholding method. This is a parameter free thresholding technique which maximizes the
inter-class variance. It is interesting to observe that the Otsu method is more accurate in cutting into two classes
than a k-means for example, because the k-means just measures distances between data and classes’ centroids
but Otsu also take care to get compact clusters using the inter-class variance.
6. Morphological Process
A shape (in blue) and its morphological dilation (in green) and erosion (in yellow) by a diamond-shape
structuring element Mathematical morphology (MM) is a theory and technique for the analysis and processing
of geometrical structures, based on set theory, lattice theory, topology, and random functions. MM is most
commonly applied to digital images, but it can be employed as well on graphs, surface meshes, solids, and many
other spatial structures. Topological and geometrical continuous-space concepts such as size, shape, convexity,
connectivity, and geodesic distance, can be characterized by MM on both continuous and discrete spaces. MM is
also the foundation of morphological image processing, which consists of a set of operators that transform
images according to the above characterizations.

7. Binary Morphology
In binary morphology, an image is viewed as a subset of an Euclidean space or the integer grid
, for some dimension d.Example application: Assume we have received a fax of a dark photocopy.
Everything looks like it was written with a pen that is bleeding. Erosion process will allow thicker lines to get
skinny and detect the hole inside the letter "o".
8. Grayscale Morphology
In grayscale morphology, images are functions mapping an Euclidean space or grid E into
, where is the set of real’s, is an element larger than any real number, and is
an element smaller than any real number. Grayscale structuring elements are also functions of the same format,
called "structuring functions".
9. Conclusion
A Segmentation algorithm for the problem of tumor delineation which exhibit varying tissue
characteristics, as the change in enhancing part of the tumor after radiation therapy becomes important. The
segmentation to partition the tumor tissues further into enhancing parts. Seed based segmentation is performed
in the image for detecting the tumor region and then highlighting the region with help of level set method pre-
processing. More importantly, the supervised segmentation method requires considerable amount of training and
testing data which comparatively complicates the process. Whereas, this study can be applied to the minimal
amount of data with reliable results. As future work, we will be trying to improve classification of Tumor using
Radial basis function which is the type of ANN. The performance of the ANN classifier was evaluated in terms
of training performance and classification accuracies. Artificial Neural Network gives fast and accurate
classification than other neural networks and it is a promising tool for classification of the tumors.
