Abstract


A brain tumor is a very common and devastating malignant tumor that leads to a shorter lifespan if not detected early enough. Brain tumor classification is a critical step after the tumor has been identified to create an effective treatment plan. This study aims to investigate the three deep learning tools, VGG-16 ResNet50 and AlexNet in order to detect brain tumor using MRI images. The results performance are then evaluated and compared using accuracy, precision and recall criteria. The dataset used contained 155 MRI images which are images with tumors, and 98 of them are non-tumors. The AlexNet model perform extremely well on the dataset with 96.10% accuracy, while VGG-16 achieved 94.16% and ResNet-50 achieved 91.56%. These accuracies positively impact the early detection of tumors before the tumor causes physical side effects such as paralysis and other disabilities.
