ABSTRACT
Accurate brain tumor classification is crucial for advancing diagnostic precision and streamlining treatment strategies. This chapter presents a brain tumor image classification methodology leveraging deep learning techniques, specifically convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Our method exploits CNNs to autonomously extract salient features from medical imaging data, enabling the differentiation of tumor types, including gliomas, meningiomas, and metastatic tumors. The architecture of our CNN comprises several convolutional layers, pooling layers, and fully connected layers designed to capture and interpret complex patterns in brain tumor imagery effectively. We enhance the model¢s performance through comprehensive data augmentation and rigorous hyperparameter tuning, achieving significant improvements in classification accuracy. Extensive experimental evaluations demonstrate the efficacy of our approach, underscoring its potential to significantly enhance diagnostic processes by providing accurate, automated tumor classification. The advancements detailed herein con-tribute to the broader application of machine learning in medical imaging, promising substantial impacts on patient care and treatment optimization.
