🧠 Brain Tumor Classification: AI-Powered Analysis 🔬

Harnessing the power of deep learning for medical diagnosis

🎯 Project Overview

A cutting-edge Streamlit application that uses AI to analyze brain MRI scans! Our system can detect and classify four types of conditions:

• 🔴 Glioma
• 🔵 Meningioma
• 🟢 Pituitary Tumor
• ⚪ No Tumor

🤖 Our Smart Models

1. 🌟 Transfer Learning with Xception (The Powerhouse)

📐 Architecture Details

Base: Xception (pretrained on ImageNet) 🏗️
Input Shape: (299, 299, 3)
Magic Ingredients:
- Flatten Layer (for 2D → 1D conversion)
- Dropout (0.3) 🎲
- Dense (128, ReLU) ⚡
- Dropout (0.25) 🎲
- Dense (4, Softmax) 🎯

💫 Why Xception is Awesome?

• 🚀 Uses depth-wise separable convolutions (super efficient!)
• 🎓 Pre-trained on millions of images (it's already smart!)
• 📊 Perfect for capturing complex medical image patterns

🛠️ Our Special Sauce

• 🔄 Global Max Pooling: Keeps the important stuff
• 🎲 Strategic Dropout: Prevents memorization
• 🧮 Smart Dense Layer: Compresses information beautifully
• ⚡ Adamax Optimizer: Stable and reliable for medical images

2. 🔧 Custom CNN Model (The Specialist)

• 📏 Works with (224, 224, 3) images
• 🎯 Specifically trained for brain scans
• 🧠 Understands brain MRI characteristics
