Abstract

­

Brain tumor is one of the commonest tumors. For the diagnosis of this disease, automated detection and classification are crucial. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a unique sort of imaging which is utilized for detecting these tumors and categorizing them as benign or malignant using special algorithms such as of K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The classification of brain tumors through imaging can be divided into four phases: pre-processing, extraction, segmentation and classification. This paper reviews some recent studies that highlight the efficacy of K-NN and SVM accuracies in classifying brain MRI images as normal or abnormal, benign or malignant.

 Keywords: brain tumor, Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), classification, SVM, K-NN.
