Brain tumors Analysis is problematic somewhat due to varied size, shape, location of tumor and the appearance and presence of brain tumor. Clinicians and radiologist have difficulty in identifying the tumor type. An efficient hybrid feature extraction method to classify the type of tumor accurately as meningioma, gliomas and pituitary tumor using SVM (support vector machine) classifier is proposed. The modified Non-Local Means (NLM) filter may be effectively used to get the pure image. The NLM filter is compared with common filters like median and wiener. From the denoised image the classification is done by training SVM using the texture features from the hybrid and efficient feature extraction technique.The accuracy of the classification is calculated and the SVM classifier training individual type of texture features and also with combined texture features and the performance is analyzed.
