MD Tanvir Rouf Shawon, G. M. Shahariar Shibli, Farzad Ahmed, Sajib Kumar Saha Joy
This paper presents a research study on the use of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), ResNet50, InceptionV3, EfficientNetB0 and NASNetMobile models to efficiently detect brain tumors in order to reduce the time required for manual review of the report and create an automated system for classifying brain tumors. An automated pipeline is proposed, which encompasses five models: CNN, ResNet50, InceptionV3, EfficientNetB0 and NASNetMobile. The performance of the proposed architecture is evaluated on a balanced dataset and found to yield an accuracy of 99.33% for fine-tuned InceptionV3 model. Furthermore, Explainable AI approaches are incorporated to visualize the model's latent behavior in order to understand its black box behavior. To further optimize the training process, a cost-sensitive neural network approach has been proposed in order to work with imbalanced datasets which has achieved almost 4% more accuracy than the conventional models used in our experiments. The cost-sensitive InceptionV3 (CS-InceptionV3) and CNN (CS-CNN) show a promising accuracy of 92.31% and a recall value of 1.00 respectively on an imbalanced dataset. The proposed models have shown great potential in improving tumor detection accuracy and must be further developed for application in practical solutions. We have provided the datasets and made our implementations publicly available at - https://github.com/shahariar-shibli/Explainable-Cost-Sensitive-Deep-Neural-Networks-for-Brain-Tumor-Detection-from-Brain-MRI-Images
