Abstract

This article proposes a method for classifying brain tumors using Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LGBM) technology based on MRI scans. A publicly available dataset of 253 MRI images (98 normal, 155 abnormal) sourced from Kaggle was utilized for validation. Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) features were extracted to capture image textures and characterize potential tumor presence. The data was divided into training and testing sets, and image pre-processing techniques like filtering and thresholding were applied to enhance image quality. The proposed LGBM model achieved an accuracy of 91.70%, outperforming an existing Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) framework by 19.37%. Confusion matrix analysis further confirmed the effectiveness of the LGBM model in accurately classifying brain tumors. This study demonstrates the potential of LGBM as a powerful tool for brain tumor classification in MRI analysis, contributing to the advancement of medical image analysis and diagnosis.
