The identification, segmentation and detection of infecting area in brain tumor MRI images are a tedious and time-consuming task. The different anatomy structure of human body can be visualized by an image processing concepts. It is very difficult to have vision about the abnormal structures of human brain using simple imaging techniques. Magnetic resonance imaging technique distinguishes and clarifies the neural architecture of human brain. MRI technique contains many imaging modalities that scans and capture the internal structure of human brain. In this study, we have concentrated on noise removal technique, extraction of gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features, DWT-based brain tumor region growing segmentation to reduce the complexity and improve the performance. This was followed by morphological filtering which removes the noise that can be formed after segmentation. The probabilistic neural network classifier was used to train and test the performance accuracy in the detection of tumor location in brain MRI images. The experimental results achieved nearly 100% accuracy in identifying normal and abnormal tissues from brain MR images demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

In the era of big data and networking, it is necessary to develop a secure and robust digital watermarking scheme with high computational efficiency to protect copyrights of digital works. However, most of the existing methods focus on robustness and embedding capacity, losing sight of security or requiring significant computational resources in the encryption process. This paper proposed a new digital image watermarking model based on scrambling algorithm Logistic and RSA asymmetric encryption algorithm to guarantee the security of the hidden data at the foundation of large embedding capacity, good robustness and high computational efficiency. The experiments involved applying the encryption algorithms of Logistic and RSA to the watermark image and performing the hybrid decomposition of Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) on the host image, and the watermark was embedded into the low-frequency sub-band of the host. The values of PSNR and NCC were measured to estimate the imperceptibility and robustness of the proposed watermarking scheme, and the CPU running time was recorded to measure the complexity of the proposed main algorithm in execution time. Experimental results showed the superiority of the proposed watermarking scheme.

Secure and robust digital image watermarking scheme using logistic and RSA encryption

The segmentation, detection, and extraction of infected tumor area from magnetic resonance (MR) images are a primary concern but a tedious and time taking task performed by radiologists or clinical experts, and their accuracy depends on their experience only. So, the use of computer aided technology becomes very necessary to overcome these limitations. In this study, to improve the performance and reduce the complexity involves in the medical image segmentation process, we have investigated Berkeley wavelet transformation (BWT) based brain tumor segmentation. Furthermore, to improve the accuracy and quality rate of the support vector machine (SVM) based classifier, relevant features are extracted from each segmented tissue. The experimental results of proposed technique have been evaluated and validated for performance and quality analysis on magnetic resonance brain images, based on accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and dice similarity index coefficient. The experimental results achieved 96.51% accuracy, 94.2% specificity, and 97.72% sensitivity, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed technique for identifying normal and abnormal tissues from brain MR images. The experimental results also obtained an average of 0.82 dice similarity index coefficient, which indicates better overlap between the automated (machines) extracted tumor region with manually extracted tumor region by radiologists. The simulation results prove the significance in terms of quality parameters and accuracy in comparison to state-of-the-art techniques.

Image Analysis for MRI Based Brain Tumor Detection and Feature Extraction Using Biologically Inspired BWT and SVM

The detection of a brain tumor and its classification from modern imaging modalities is a primary concern, but a time-consuming and tedious work was performed by radiologists or clinical supervisors. The accuracy of detection and classification of tumor stages performed by radiologists is depended on their experience only, so the computer-aided technology is very important to aid with the diagnosis accuracy. In this study, to improve the performance of tumor detection, we investigated comparative approach of different segmentation techniques and selected the best one by comparing their segmentation score. Further, to improve the classification accuracy, the genetic algorithm is employed for the automatic classification of tumor stage. The decision of classification stage is supported by extracting relevant features and area calculation. The experimental results of proposed technique are evaluated and validated for performance and quality analysis on magnetic resonance brain images, based on segmentation score, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and dice similarity index coefficient. The experimental results achieved 92.03% accuracy, 91.42% specificity, 92.36% sensitivity, and an average segmentation score between 0.82 and 0.93 demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed technique for identifying normal and abnormal tissues from brain MR images. The experimental results also obtained an average of 93.79% dice similarity index coefficient, which indicates better overlap between the automated extracted tumor regions with manually extracted tumor region by radiologists.

Comparative Approach of MRI-Based Brain Tumor Segmentation and Classification Using Genetic Algorithm

We present the performance of three popular image feature extraction methods such as Scale Invariant Feature Transformation (SIFT), Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF) and Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG). Specifically, we compare the performance of feature detection methods for images corrupted with different types of noise. The efficiency of three methods are measured by considering number of correct matches between original and noisy image found by the algorithm. In this study, we use images corrupted by three types of noise such as gaussian, salt & pepper and speckle. It is observed from the experimental results that for most of the noisy images, SIFT presents its stability but it is slow. SURF is the fastest one and its performance is close to SIFT. However, HOG show its advantages in detecting edge and texture information of image.
