DL Fine-Tuning Transfer Learning VGG16

Overview

This study demonstrates a CNN-based approach for categorizing and detecting brain tumors. The dataset utilized in this study comprises four categories: glioma, meningioma, pituitary, and no tumor in a total of 7023 MRI images. In this proposed work, the combination of a pre-trained model (VGG16) and fine-tuning works very accurately to classify the malignant tumor. However, there are three fully connected layers 256, 128, and 64 with dropout and batch normalization respectively, which enhances the overall validation accuracy of 98.67%, and also improves the precision, sensitivity, and specificity rather than commonly used convolutional neural network models (CNNs).
