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.

Tumor Detection and Classification of MRI Brain Images using SVM and DNNijtsrd
The brain is one of the most complex organ in the human body that works with billions of cells. A cerebral tumor occurs when there is an uncontrolled division of cells that form an abnormal group of cells around or within the brain. This cell group can affect the normal functioning of brain activity and can destroy healthy cells. Brain tumors are classified as benign or low grade Grade 1 and 2 and malignant tumors or high grade Grade 3 and 4 . The proposed methodology aims to differentiate between normal brain and tumor brain Benign or Melign . The proposed method in this paper is automated framework for differentiate between normal brain and tumor brain. Then our method is used to predict the diseases accurately. Then these methods are used to predict the disease is affected or not by using a comparison method. These methodology are validated by a comprehensive set of comparison against competing and well established image registration methods, by using real medical data sets and classic measures typically employed as a benchmark by the medical imaging community our proposed method is mostly used in medical field. It is used to easily detect the diseases. We demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the preset framework throughout a comprehensive set of qualitative comparisons against several influential state of the art methods on various brain image databases.

Glioblastoma Multiforme Identification from Medical Imaging Using Computer Vi...ijscmcj
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 detection and 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.
A malignant tumor, also called brain cancer, grows rapidly and often invades or crowds healthy areas of the brain. Brain tumors can affect white matter fibers by either infiltrating or displacing the tissue. When the myelin sheath is damaged or disappears, the conduction of impulses along nerve fibers slows down or fails completely. Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is a relatively new imaging technique that can be used to evaluate white matter in the brain. DTI has diagnostic implications by being able to pinpoint areas where normal water flow is disrupted, providing valuable information about the location of specific lesions. Edema, infiltration and destruction of white matter reduces the anisotropic nature of the white matter. The paper aims to segment tumor from the healthy brain tissues in Diffusion Tensor brain tumor images using Fuzzy C-Means clustering.
BATA-UNET: DEEP LEARNING MODEL FOR LIVER SEGMENTATIONsipij
In computer vision, image segmentation is defined as process of a partition of an image in a number of regions with homogeneous features. The region of our interest here is the liver. Prior to the deep learning revolution traditional handcrafted features were used for liver segmentation but with deep learning the features are obtained automatically. There are many semiautomatic and fully automatic approaches have been proposed to improve the liver segmentation procedure some of them use deep learning techniques for Segmentation and other one use a Classical Based method for Segmentation. In this paper we aim to enhance our previous work which we were proposed a Batch Normalization After All - Convolutional Neural Network (BATA-Convnet) model to segment the liver, where the Dice is equal to 0.91% when implement our BATA Convnet using MICCA dataset and Dice is equal to 0.84% when implement it using 3D-IRCAD dataset. Here in this paper we propose BATA-Unet model for liver segmentation, it's based on Unet architecture as backbone but differ in we added a batch normalization layer an after each convolution layer in both construction path and expanding path. The proposed method was able to achieve highest dice similarity coefficient than the previous work where for MICCA dataset Dice =0.97% and for
3D-IRCAD dataset =0.96%. Also our proposed model outperformed other state-of-the-art model when we compare it with them.
Lung Cancer Detection using Machine Learningijtsrd
Modern three dimensional 3 D medical imaging offers the potential and promise for major advances in science and medicine as higher fidelity images are produced. Due to advances in computer aided diagnosis and continuous progress in the field of computerized medical image visualization, there is need to develop one of the most important fields within scientific imaging. From the early basis report on cancer patients it has been seen that a greater number of people die of lung cancer than from other cancers such as colon, breast and prostate cancers combined. Lung cancer are related to smoking or secondhand smoke , or less often to exposure to radon or other environmental factors that’s why this can be prevented. But still it is not yet clear if these cancers can be prevented or not.

Brain Tumor is basically the unusual growth of some new cells found in the brain. This can happen in any area of the brain. Tumor are categorized by finding the origin of the cell which has tumor and if the cells are cancerous or not. Segmentation process is carried out to find if brain tumor exists or not, then the response of the patient to the tests performed is collected, different therapy sessions and also by creating models which has tumor growth in it. This one is different from the other types of tumor. Anyone can suffer from this disease. Primary tumors are basically Benign or Malignant. Here, we propose CNN Convolutional Neural Network based approach for improving accuracy. It also have capacity to detect certain features without any interaction from human beings. With the help of this model it classifies whether the MRI brain scan has tumor or not. There are other different algorithms, but this paper shows that CNN gives more accuracy than the rest. This model gives validation accuracy between 77 85 . gives more precise and accurate results.

Automatic brain tumor detection using adaptive region growing with thresholdi...IAESIJAI
Brain cancer affects many people around the world. It's not just limited to the elderly; it is also recognized in children. With the development of image processing, early detection of mental development is possible. Some designers suggest deformable models, histogram averaging, or manual division. Due to constant manual intervention, these cycles can be uncomfortable and tiring. This research introduces a high-level system for the removal of malignant tumors from attractive reverberation images, based on a programmed and rapid distribution strategy for surface extraction and recreation for clinicians. To test the proposed system, acquired tomography images from the Cancer Imaging Archive were used. The results of the study strongly demonstrate that the intended structure is viable in brain tumor detection.
details about brain tumor
literature survey on many reference papers related to brain tumor detection using various techniques
our proposed novel methodology for brain tumor detection
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.

An evaluation of automated tumor detection techniques of brain magnetic reson...Salam Shah
Image processing is a technique developed by computer and Information technology scientist and being used in all field of research including medical sciences. The focus of this paper is the use of image processing in tumor detection from the brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). For the brain tumor detection, Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are the prominent imaging techniques, but most of the experts prefer MRI over CT. The traditional method of tumor detection in MRI images is a manual inspection which provides variations in the results when analyzed by different experts, therefore, in view of the limitations of the manual analysis of MRI, there is a need for an automated system that can produce globally acceptable and accurate results. There is enough amount of published literature available to replace the manual inspection process of MRI images with the digital computer system using image processing techniques. In this paper, we have provided a review of digital image processing techniques in the context of brain MRI processing and critically analyzed them for the identification of the gaps and limitations of the techniques so that the gaps can be filled and limitations of various techniques can be improved for precise and better results.

The Impact of Digital Media on the Decentralization of Power and the Erosion ...ijtsrd
The impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has gained considerable attention in recent years. The adoption of digital technologies and the internet has resulted in declining influence and power for traditional gatekeepers such as publishing houses and news organizations. Simultaneously, digital media has facilitated the emergence of new voices and players in the media industry. Digital medias impact on power decentralization and gatekeeper erosion is visible in several ways. One significant aspect is the democratization of information, which enables anyone with an internet connection to publish and share content globally, leading to citizen journalism and bypassing traditional gatekeepers. Another aspect is the disruption of conventional media industry business models, as traditional organizations struggle to adjust to the decrease in advertising revenue and the rise of digital platforms. Alternative business models, such as subscription models and crowdfunding, have become more prevalent, leading to the emergence of new players. Overall, the impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has brought about significant changes in the media landscape and the way information is shared. Further research is required to fully comprehend the implications of these changes and their impact on society.

The Role of Mentoring and Its Influence on the Effectiveness of the Teaching ...ijtsrd
This paper reports on a study which was conducted to investigate the role of mentoring and its influence on the effectiveness of the teaching of Physics in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. The study adopted the convergent parallel mixed methods design, focusing on respondents in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, analysed separately, and the results were compared to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. The quantitative analysis found that majority of the respondents 72 of Physics teachers affirmed that they had more experienced colleagues as mentors to help build their confidence, improve their teaching, and help them improve their effectiveness and efficiency in guiding learners’ achievements. Only 28 of the respondents disagreed with these statements. With majority respondents 72 agreeing with the statements, it implies that in most secondary schools, experienced Physics teachers act as mentors to build teachers’ confidence in teaching and improving students’ learning. The interview qualitative data analysis summarized how secondary school Principals use meetings with mentors and mentees to promote mentorship in the school milieu. This has helped strengthen teachers’ classroom practices in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. With the results confirming each other, the study recommends that mentoring should focus on helping teachers employ social interactions and instructional practices feedback and clarity in teaching that have direct measurable impact on students’ learning achievements.

This study primarily focuses on the design of a high side buck converter using an Arduino microcontroller. The converter is specifically intended for use in DC DC applications, particularly in standalone solar PV systems where the PV output voltage exceeds the load or battery voltage. To evaluate the performance of the converter, simulation experiments are conducted using Proteus Software. These simulations provide insights into the input and output voltages, currents, powers, and efficiency under different state of charge SoC conditions of a 12V,70Ah rechargeable lead acid battery. Additionally, the hardware design of the converter is implemented, and practical data is collected through operation, monitoring, and recording. By comparing the simulation results with the practical results, the efficiency and performance of the designed converter are assessed. The findings indicate that while the buck converter is suitable for practical use in standalone PV systems, its efficiency is compromised due to a lower output current.

Sustainable Energy by Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O. Sadikuijtsrd
Energy becomes sustainable if it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some of the definitions of sustainable energy include the considerations of environmental aspects such as greenhouse gas emissions, social, and economic aspects such as energy poverty. Generally far more sustainable than fossil fuel are renewable energy sources such as wind, hydroelectric power, solar, and geothermal energy sources. Worthy of note is that some renewable energy projects, like the clearing of forests to produce biofuels, can cause severe environmental damage. The sustainability of nuclear power which is a low carbon source is highly debated because of concerns about radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation, and accidents. The switching from coal to natural gas has environmental benefits, including a lower climate impact, but could lead to delay in switching to more sustainable options. “Carbon capture and storage” can be built into power plants to remove the carbon dioxide CO2 emissions, but this technology is expensive and has rarely been implemented. Leading non renewable energy sources around the world is fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Nuclear energy is usually considered another non renewable energy source, although nuclear energy itself is a renewable energy source, but the material used in nuclear power plants is not. The paper addresses the issue of sustainable energy, its attendant benefits to the future generation, and humanity in general. Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O.

Concepts for Sudan Survey Act Implementations Executive Regulations and Stand...ijtsrd
This paper aims to outline the executive regulations, survey standards, and specifications required for the implementation of the Sudan Survey Act, and for regulating and organizing all surveying work activities in Sudan. The act has been discussed for more than 5 years. The Land Survey Act was initiated by the Sudan Survey Authority and all official legislations were headed by the Sudan Ministry of Justice till it was issued in 2022. The paper presents conceptual guidelines to be used for the Survey Act implementation and to regulate the survey work practice, standardizing the field surveys, processing, quality control, procedures, and the processes related to survey work carried out by the stakeholders and relevant authorities in Sudan. The conceptual guidelines are meant to improve the quality and harmonization of geospatial data and to aid decision making processes as well as geospatial information systems. The established comprehensive executive regulations will govern and regulate the implementation of the Sudan Survey Geomatics Act in all surveying and mapping practices undertaken by the Sudan Survey Authority SSA and state local survey departments for public or private sector organizations. The targeted standards and specifications include the reference frame, projection, coordinate systems, and the guidelines and specifications that must be followed in the field of survey work, processes, and mapping products. In the last few decades, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of geomatics activities and measurements on the Earths surface in space and time, together with observing and mapping the changes. In such cases, data must be captured promptly, standardized, and obtained with more accuracy and specified in much detail. The paper will also highlight the current situation in Sudan, the degree to which survey standards are used, the problems encountered, and the errors that arise from not using the standards and survey specifications.

Towards the Implementation of the Sudan Interpolated Geoid Model Khartoum Sta...ijtsrd
The discussions between ellipsoid and geoid have invoked many researchers during the recent decades, especially during the GNSS technology era, which had witnessed a great deal of development but still geoid undulation requires more investigations. To figure out a solution for Sudans local geoid, this research has tried to intake the possibility of determining the geoid model by following two approaches, gravimetric and geometrical geoid model determination, by making use of GNSS leveling benchmarks at Khartoum state. The Benchmarks are well distributed in the study area, in which, the horizontal coordinates and the height above the ellipsoid have been observed by GNSS while orthometric heights were carried out using precise leveling. The Global Geopotential Model GGM represented in EGM2008 has been exploited to figure out the geoid undulation at the benchmarks in the study area. This is followed by a fitting process, that has been done to suit the geoid undulation data which has been computed using GNSS leveling data and geoid undulation inspired by the EGM2008. Two geoid surfaces were created after the fitting process to ensure that they are identical and both of them could be counted for getting the same geoid undulation with an acceptable accuracy. In this respect, statistical operation played an important role in ensuring the consistency and integrity of the model by applying cross validation techniques splitting the data into training and testing datasets for building the geoid model and testing its eligibility. The geometrical solution for geoid undulation computation has been utilized by applying straightforward equations that facilitate the calculation of the geoid undulation directly through applying statistical techniques for the GNSS leveling data of the study area to get the common equation parameters values that could be utilized to calculate geoid undulation of any position in the study area within the claimed accuracy. Both systems were checked and proved eligible to be used within the study area with acceptable accuracy which may contribute to solving the geoid undulation problem in the Khartoum area, and be further generalized to determine the geoid model over the entire country, and this could be considered in the future, for regional and continental geoid model.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Devkota, et al. [2] have proposed a computeraideddetection
approach to diagnose brain tumor in its early stage using
Mathematical Morphological Reconstruction (MMR). Image
is pre-processed to remove noise and artifacts and then
segmented to find regions of interest withprobabletumor.A
large number of textural and statistical features are
extracted from the segmented image to classify whether the
brain tumor in the image is benign or malignant. Their
experimental results showthat thesegmented images havea
high accuracy while substantially reducing the computation
time. Their study shows that the proposed solution can be
used to diagnose brain tumor in patients with a high success
rate.
A., Meena, and K., Raja proposed an approach of Spatial
Fuzzy C-Means (PETSFCM) clustering algorithmonPositron
Emission Tomography (PET) scan image datasets.
The algorithm is joining the spatial neighborhood
information with classical Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and
updating the objective function of each cluster. Spatial
relationship of neighboring pixel is an aid of image
segmentation.Theseneighboringpixels arehighlyrenovated
the same feature data. In spatial domain, the member-ships
of the neighbor centered are specified to obtain the cluster
distribution statistics. They calculated the weighting
function based on these statistics and applied into the
member-ship function. Their algorithm is tested on data
collection of patients with Alzheimer’s disease. They did not
calculate objective based quality assessment that could
analyze images and did not report their quality without
human involvement.
METHODOLOGY
This session expresses the background theory used in the
brain tumor detection system. Average filter, image
segmentation, region properties and calculation of tumor
area in MRI brain images are explained in the following
sections.
A. Average Filter
The default filter type is the average or mean filter in the
general class. The average filter is low pass filter. Theoutput
cell value calculated by filter is the simple average
(arithmetic mean) of the cells in the filter window. The
averaging performed by the average filter removes some of
the higher frequency features, while allowing the low-
frequency features to pass through the filter unchanged
(thus the term “low pass” filter). This has the effect of
smoothing the raster image, emphasizing its larger-scale
brightness trends. Whether the smoothing produced by the
low pass filter is beneficial or not depends on the
characteristics of the input image. Average filter is used to
smooth the image and remove noisessuchas Gaussiannoise.
It reduces the amount of intensity variation between one
pixel and the next.
Average filter is an estimation of average from neighbor
pixels within the kernel. The filtering equation can be
expressed as (1).
g(x,y) = 1/M∑(x,y)∈S f(x,y) (1)
where S is the neighborhood of pixel (x,y), M is the number
of pixels in neighborhood S, and g(x,y) is the filtered image.
Sub-images are summed up and then multiplied by 1/M [4].
B. Image Segmentation
Thresholding is one of the commonly used methods for
image segmentation [5]. Image threshold is a simple,
effective and way of partitioning an image into a foreground
and background. This image analysis technique is a type of
image segmentation that isolates objects by converting
grayscale images into binary images.Regions ofanimage are
separated out corresponding to objects which want to
analyze. Each pixel is labeled as belonging to one of
(typically) two classes. At present, threshold-based methods
are classified into global, local andadaptivethresholdings. In
this study, global threshold based segmentation method is
used to segment brain tumor in MRI brain image.
Global (single) thresholding method is used when the
intensity distribution between the objects offoreground and
background are very distinct. When the differences between
foreground and background objects are very distinct, a
single value of threshold can simply be used to differentiate
both objects apart [6]. Global methods finda singlethreshold
value T for the whole document. Then each pixel is assigned
to page foreground or background based on its gray value
comparing with thethresholdvalue.Globalmethods arevery
fast and they give good results for typical scanned
documents. For many years, the binarization of a grayscale
document was based on the global thresholding statistical
algorithms [7]. Somemostcommonusedglobalthresholding
methods are Otsu method, entropy based thresholding, etc.
Otsu’s algorithm is a popular global thresholding technique.
Moreover, there are many popular thresholding techniques
such as Kittler and Illingworth, Kapur, Tasi, Huang, Yen and
et al [8]. The condition for selecting the T is given as (2).
g(x, y) =
1 if f(x, y) > T
0 otherwise
(2)
where g(x, y) is the thresholded image, f (x, y) is the input
image, and T is the threshold value. Equation (2) has no
indication on selecting the threshold value T. The threshold
T separates the object from the dark background. Any point
(x,y) for which f(x, y) >T is called an object point. Pixels are
labeled 1 corresponds to object whereas pixels labeled 0
corresponds to the background [8]. Global thresholding is
popular due to simplicity and easy implementation [5][9].
C. Region Properties
Image regions are also called objects, connected
components, or blobs, can be contiguous or discontiguous.It
returns measurements for the set of properties specified by
properties for 8-connected component(object) inthebinary
image, black and white. A region in an image can have
properties, such as Area, BoundingBox, ConvexArea,
Centroid, Eccentricity, ConvexHull, EquivDiameter,
EulerNumber, Extent, Extrema, FilledArea, Image,
FilledImage, MajorAxisLength, MinorAxisLength,
Orientation, PixelList, PixelIdxList, Solidity, SubarrayIdx,
Perimeter, ConvexImage. Measurement values are returned
as an array of structure or a table. Region properties canbea
comma-separated list of strings, a cell array containing
strings, the single string 'all', or the string 'basic'. If
properties are the string 'all', then all the preceding
measurements are computed. If properties are not specified
or are the string 'basic', then these measurements are
computed: 'Area', 'Centroid', and 'BoundingBox' [10].

D. Area Calculation of Tumor Region
The tumor area is calculated using the binarization method.
That is the image having only two values either black or
white (0 or 1) [11]. 256x256 jpeg image is the maximum
image size. The binary image can be represented as a
summation of total number of white and black pixels shown
in (3). The number of white pixels is calculated by (4).
Image I= ∑ ∑ [f(0)+f(1)]255
H=0
255
W=0 (3)
where f(0) is black pixel (digit 0) and f(1)is whitepixel (digit
1).
P = ∑ ∑ [f(0)] (4)
, where P is number of white pixel and 1 Pixel is equal to
0.264 mm.
The area calculation formula is shown in (5).
Size_of_tumor_is, S=[(√A)*0.264]mm2 (5)
DESIGN OF THE SYSTEM
The typical brain tumor detection generally consists of five
basic steps: image pre-processing, tumor segmentation,
tumor detection, calculation of the brain tumor area and
determination of the brain tumor location. The flow chart of
the system is shown in Fig. 1.
Figure1. Flow Chart of the Proposed System
At first, MRI image of the brain is accepted as input image of
the system. In pre-processing step, the input MRI brain
image is converted into grayscale image. When MRI/CT
images are viewed, they look like black and white but they
contain some primary colors (RGB). Therefore, grayscale
conversion is needed in this step. This result is put to the
filtering step using average filter for smoothing the input
image. Several different filters can be used for filtering. But,
MRI image does not contain a lot of noise. So, the average
filter is used in this step. After using the average filter, the
smooth image is obtained. This smooth image is used to
operate the next step of the system quickly.
After removing the noise from the input brain image, this
image is loaded into the segmentation step. In this step,
global thresholding is used and the threshold point 0.6 is
selected as standard threshold point for this segmentation
step. This threshold point is very effective for all MRI brain
images. If a suitable threshold point is not chosen, the
detection of the brain tumor region can be difficult to find
the accurate tumor region. Therefore, an appropriate
threshold point is chosen for the system. The segmented
images can have pixels above the standard threshold point.
The image from the segmentation process is labeled to use
region properties. Many region properties of the image may
be used to detect the tumor region, but only two region
properties are used in the system such as ‘Area’ and
‘Solidity’. Solidity gives the proportion of the pixels in the
convex hull that are also in the region. So, solidity is what
fraction of the actual area region is.Forany convexobject it’s
1. An asterisk might have a solidity of around 0.5, while a
thin “L” shape (or “T” or “E”, etc.) would have a very low
solidity. Moreover, solidity also helps to find the normal
brain which is no tumor in the tumor detection stage. And
then area of the region properties is usedtofindthemember
of the result from the defined solidityvalue.Afterthesesteps
are finished, the brain tumor region is obtained quickly and
accurately.
In this step, the output from the detection process is used to
calculate the area of the tumor region in the brain slice. The
size of images, 256 × 256, are used as the maximum image
size for the system so that the dimensions of the MRI brain
images are equal size. Therefore,thecalculationofthetumor
region is more efficient to analyze for medical fields. This
region properties method generates automatically tumor
area in pixels. So the white pixels of tumor region from the
detected brain image are without needed to count.
Finally, the location of the tumor region can be determined
to know position whether tumor is at left hemisphere, right
hemisphere or near the center of the brain. The column
pixels or x-dimension of the first input image from the
system is divided by 2. The minimum value and the
maximum value are calculated to compare with the center
value of image which is divided result of input image. If the
tumor is located in the left part of the brain, the tumor is
actually located in the right hemisphere of the brain or
inversely. If the minimum value is greater than the center
value, the tumor is located in the left hemisphere of the
brain. If the maximum value is less than the center value,the
tumor is located in the right hemisphere of the brain.
Otherwise, the tumor is located near the center of the brain.
