Abstract: Tumors are of various sorts and they have
distinctive characteristics and diverse treatment. As it is
known, brain tumor is characteristically serious and life-
debilitating in light of its character in the constrained space of
the intracranial cavity (space shaped inside the skull). Most
Research in created nations demonstrates that the quantity of
individuals who have brain tumors were died because of the
reality of mistaken location. This paper manages near
investigation for discovery of extent and state of tumor in brain
MR pictures.
Key words: MRI, Threshold based, Frequency based, Denoising.
I. INTRODUCTION
Regularly the life structures of the Brain can be seen by
the MRI sweep or CT scan. In this venture the MRI examined
picture is taken for the whole process. The MRI output is
more agreeable than CT check for analysis. It is not
influence the human body .Because it doesn't utilize any
radiation. It depends on the attractive field and radio waves.
There are distinctive sorts of calculation were produced for
brain tumor recognition. Be that as it may, they might have
some disadvantage in recognition and extraction. Tumor is
because of the uncontrolled development of the tissues in
any part of the body. The tumor might be essential or
auxiliary. On the off chance that it is a birthplace, then it is
known as essential. In the event that the part of the tumor is
spread to somewhere else and developed as its own
particular then it is known as auxiliary. Typically mind
tumor influences CSF (Cerebral Spinal Fluid). The doctor
gives the treatment for the strokes as opposed to the
treatment for tumor. So recognition of tumor is imperative
for that treatment. The lifetime of the individual who
influenced by the mind tumor will increment in the event
that it is recognized at current stage. That will build the
lifetime around 1 to 2 years. Regularly tumor cells are of
two sorts. They are Mass and Malignant. The discovery of
the threatening tumor is fairly hard to mass tumor. For the
exact discovery of the dangerous tumor that needs a 3-D
representation of mind and 3-D analyzer apparatus.
II RELATED WORK
In Classification of Brain Cancer Using Artificial Neural
Network [3] A Brain Cancer Detection and Classification
System has been designed and developed. The system uses
computer based procedures to detect tumor blocks or
lesions and classify the type of tumor using Artificial Neural
Network in MRI images of different patients with
Astrocytoma type of brain tumors.
In Diagnosis of Brain Tumours from Magnetic Resonance
Spectroscopy using Wavelets and Neural Networks [4] The
diagnosis of human brain tumors from noninvasive signal
measurements is a sensitive task that requires specialized
expertise. In this task, radiology experts are likely to benefit
from the support of computer-based systems built around
robust classification processes. In this brief paper, a method
that combines data pre-processing using wavelets with
classification using Artificial Neural Networks is shown to
yield high diagnostic classification accuracy for a broad
range of brain tumour pathologies.
A Study on Prognosis of Brain Tumors Using Fuzzy Logic
and Genetic Algorithm Based Techniques [5] presents study
attempt to determine the degree of malignancy of brain
tumors using artificial intelligence. The suspicious regions
in brain as suggested by the radiologists have been
segmented using fuzzy c-means clustering technique.
Fourier descriptors are utilized for precise extraction of
boundary features of the tumor region. As Fourier
Descriptors introduce a large number of feature vectors
that may invite the problem of over learning and chance of
misclassifications, the proposed diagnosis system efficiently
search the significant boundary features by genetic
algorithm and feed them to the adaptive neuro-fuzzy based
classifier. In addition to shape based features, textural
compositions are also incorporated to achieve high level of
accuracy in diagnosis of tumors. The study involves 100
brain images and has shown 86% correct classification rate.
Detection of Brain Tumor in Medical Images [6] This
paper introduces an efficient detection of brain tumor from
cerebral MRI images. The methodology consists of three
steps: enhancement, segmentation and classification. To
improve the quality of images and limit the risk of distinct
regions fusion in the segmentation phase an enhancement
process is applied.

In next sections architecture of proposed method is
explained. In IV section algorithm is explained and then
result and conclusion using K mean and clustering
algorithm is presented.
III. PROPOSED FLOW
Proposed algorithm basically deals with K-means algorithm.
3.1 Division utilizing K means Algorithm
K-Means is the one of the unsupervised learning
calculation for clusters. Clustering the picture is gathering
the pixels as indicated by the a few attributes. In the k-
implies calculation at first we need to characterize the
quantity of clusters k. Then k-cluster center are chosen
randomly. The distance between the each pixel to each
cluster centers are calculated. The distance may be of
simple Euclidean function. Single pixel is compared to all
cluster centers using the distance formula. The pixel is
moved to particular cluster which has shortest distance
among all. Then the centroid is re-estimated. Again each
pixel is compared to all centroids. The process continuous
until the center converges. The K-means algorithm
implements a divisive clustering and was first discussed by
Duda and Har. The algorithm uses a similarity metric to
assign all documents to one of k clusters. The clusters are
represented as an average of all documents contained
within the cluster. This average can be thought of as the
centroid of the cluster.
A simple two dimensional case for K-means
clustering is shown The K-means algorithm set with k = 4
results in four clusters represented by A, B, C, and D. The K-
means algorithm operates as follows:
1. Assign document vectors, di 2 D, to a cluster
using an initial seed.
2. Initialize cluster centroids, C, from initial
document assignments.
3. For each document d 2 D
(a) Recalculate distances from document di to
centroids (C1,C2,...,Ck), and find the closest centroid Cmin.
(b) Move document d from current cluster Ck into
new cluster Cmin and re-calculate the centroid for Ck and
Cmin.
4. Repeat step 3 until either the maximum epoch
limit is reached or an epoch passes in which no changes in
document assignments are made. An epoch is a complete
pass through all documents.
The initial seed clusters can be either assigned or
generated by randomly assigning documents to clusters. K-
means has been used in the clustering of images.
A: Mathematical representation
For a given image, compute the cluster means m
Calculate the distance between the cluster centers to each
pixel
Repeat the above two steps until mean value convergence.
The K-means algorithm is an iterative technique that is used
to partition an image into K clusters. The basic algorithm is:
1. Pick K group focuses, either arbitrarily or taking into
account some heuristic.
2. Allot every pixel in the picture to the bunch that
minimizes the change between the pixel and the group
focus.
3. Re-process the bunch focuses by averaging the majority
of the pixels in the group.
Figure 3.1 Proposed flow of detection
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until meeting is achieved (e.g. no
pixels change groups)
In this case, variance is the squared or absolute difference
between a pixel and a cluster center. The difference is
typically based on pixel color, intensity, texture, and
location, or a weighted combination of these factors. K can
be selected manually, randomly, or by a heuristic. This
algorithm is guaranteed to converge, but it may not return
the optimal solution.
The quality of the solution depends on the initial set of
clusters and the value of K. The detailed description of
clustering methods for images is given in a source. The
other approach to partition an image into K clusters is the

statistical hierarchical aglomerative clusterization
technique for identification of images regions by the color
similarity. This method uses a binary mask and ranks the
color components of the clusters’ central components. The
basic algorithm is:
1. Each pixel is the separate cluster
2. The clusters with the same masks joins into new clusters
3. New clusters are set up by the cluster integration with
minimum distance. The stage may occur until the condition
for clusters’ comparability is being obeyed. This is condition
based on the binary mask of correlation and ranks.
B: Algorithm
1. Give the no of bunch quality as k.
2. Arbitrarily pick the k bunch focuses
3. Ascertain mean or focal point of the group
4. Ascertain the separation b/w every pixel to every bunch
focus
5. on the off chance that the separation is close to the center
then move to that group.
6. Generally move to next bunch.
7. Re-gauge the center.
8. Repeat the procedure until the inside doesn't move

3.2 Segmentation using Fuzzy C-means
Algorithm
A Fuzzy Clustering:
The fuzzy logic is an approach to giving so as to handle
the information the fractional participation worth to every
pixel in the picture. The enrollment estimation of the fuzzy
set is extents from 0 to 1. Fuzzy grouping is essentially a
multi esteemed rationale that permits transitional qualities
i.e., member of one Fuzzy set can also be member of other
fuzzy sets in the same image. There is no abrupt transition
between full membership and non membership. The
membership function defines the fuzziness of an image and
also to define the information contained in the image. These
are three main basic features involved in characterized by
membership function. They are support, Boundary. The
core is a fully member of the fuzzy set. The support is non
membership value of the set and boundary is the
intermediate or partial membership with value between 0
and 1. Fuzzy C-Means algorithm has several advantages like
a) It is unsupervised
b) It disseminates the participation values in a
standardized manner.
However in unsupervised method it is not possible to
predict ahead of time what type of cluster will emerge from
the Fuzzy C-Means.
B: Mathematical representation
Fuzzy c-means (FCM) is the clustering algorithm which
allows one piece of data may be member of more than one
clusters. It is based on reducing the following function
Where
m- Any real number greater than 1,
Mij- degree of membership of X; in the cluster j,
x- Data measured in d-dimensional,
Rj - d-dimension center of the cluster,
The update of membership Mij and the cluster centers R,

The above process ends when,
C Fuzzy C-mean algorithm
The algorithm contain following steps:
1. Initialize M= [Mij] matrix, M(0)
2. At k-step: calculate the centers vectors R (k) = [Rj] with M
(k)
3. Update U (k), U (k+l)
4. If || M (k+1)) - M (k) || < δ then STOP, otherwise return to
step 2.
The algorithmic steps involved for brain tumor shape
detection is as follows,
1. Begin the procedure.
2. Get the MRI examines picture data in JPEG position.
3. Check whether the info picture is in required
configuration and move to step 4 if not show blunder
message.
4. On the off chance that picture is in RGB format change
over it into gray scale else move to next step.
5. Discover the edge of the grayscale picture.
6. Ascertain the quantity of white focuses in the picture.
7. Ascertain the extent of the tumor utilizing the equation.
8. Show the size and phase of tumor.
9. Stop the project.
This algorithm scans the RGB or grayscale image,
converts the image into binary image by binarization
technique and detects the edge of tumor pixels in the binary
image. Also it calculates the size of tumor by calculating the
number of white pixels (digit 0) in binary image.

V. CONCLUSION
There are diverse sorts of tumors are accessible. They
might be as mass in cerebrum or harmful over the brain.
Assume on the off chance that it is a mass then K-means
calculation is sufficient to concentrate it from the brain
cells. On the off chance that there is any noise are
available in the MR picture it is evacuated before the K
means process. The noise free picture is given as an input
to the k-means and tumor is extricated from the MRI
picture. And after that division utilizing Fuzzy C means
for precise tumor shape extraction of threatening tumor
and thresholding of yield in highlight extraction. At long
last surmised thinking for ascertaining tumor shape and
position estimation. The test results are contrasted and
different calculations. The phase of tumor depends on the
range of tumor. We considered that, if the zone is more
noteworthy than 6 mm"2 it will be the basic position.
