Abstract: Brain tumor defines the aggregation of abnormal cells in certain tissues of the brain area. The earlier identification of brain tumor plays a significant part in the treatment and recovery of the patient. The identification of a brain tumor and its grade is generally a difficult and time consuming task. For effective classification and grading of brain tumor images, in this paper, we present a convolutional neural network (CNN) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm of Glioma by the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The presented CNN-PSO model make use of PSO algorithm to select the deep neural network architecture which are generally depends on trial and error or by employed fixed structures. A detailed experimentation of the CNN-PSO method is carried out on several benchmark MRI brain images and verified its effectiveness on the applied test images with respect to different classification measures.
