Fusion based Glioma brain tumor detection and segmentation using ANFIS classification

The detection of tumor regions in Glioma brain image is a challenging task due to its low sensitive boundary pixels. In this paper, Non-Sub sampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) is used to enhance the brain image and then texture features are extracted from the enhanced brain image. These extracted features are trained and classified using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) approach to classify the brain image into normal and Glioma brain image. Then, the tumor regions in Glioma brain image is segmented using morphological functions. The proposed Glioma brain tumor detection methodology is applied on the Brain Tumor image Segmentation challenge (BRATS) open access dataset in order to evaluate the performance.
