Deep neural network with generative adversarial networks pre-training for brain tumor classification based on MR images

Ghassemi, Navid, Shoeibi, Afshin, Rouhani, Modjtaba·2020·Biomedical Signal Processing and Control

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, a new deep learning method for tumor classification in MR images is presented. A deep neural network is first pre-trained as a discriminator in a generative adversarial network (GAN) on different datasets of MR images to extract robust features and to learn the structure of MR images in its convolutional layers. Then the fully connected layers are replaced and the whole deep network is trained as a classifier to distinguish three tumor classes. The deep neural network classifier has six layers and about 1.7 million weight parameters. Pre-training as a discriminator of a GAN together with other techniques such as data augmentations (image rotation and mirroring) and dropout prevent the network from overtraining on a relatively small dataset. This method is applied to an MRI data set consists of 3064 T1-CE MR images from 233 patients, 13 images from each patient on average, with three different brain tumor types: meningioma (708 images), glioma (1426 images), and pituitary tumor (930 images). 5-Fold cross-validation is used to evaluate the performance of overall design, achieving the highest accuracy as compared to state-of-art methods.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
