An improved tumor segmentation algorithm from T2 and FLAIR multimodality MRI brain images by support vector machine and genetic algorithm

This paper puts forth a framework of a medical image analysis system for brain tumor segmentation. Image segmentation helps to segregate objects right from the background, thus proving to be a powerful tool in medical image processing. This paper presents an improved segmentation algorithm rooted in...
