Abstract

Fast and accurate diagnosis plays a critical role in effectively treating brain tumors. This study optimized and evaluated the EfficientNetV2 architecture through transfer learning, fine-tuning, and data augmentation, using three variants Small, Medium, and Large to classify MRI images into four categories: glioma, meningioma, pituitary tumors, and no tumor. Grad-CAM visualization was employed to enhance interpretability, providing a clear view of the critical regions in the MRI images that influenced the model’s decisions. Grad-CAM was tested across all model variants, and the best results were observed with EfficientNetV2-Large, where the model successfully highlighted the key areas associated with brain tumors. Among the variants, EfficientNetV2-Large achieved the best performance, with 99.85% accuracy, 99.60% precision, 99.65% recall, and 99.50% F1-score. However, this model required the longest computation time of 288 seconds per step, which may not be feasible in resource- constrained environments. Overall, this study underscores the potential of EfficientNetV2 models in revolutionizing brain tumor diagnosis by balancing accuracy, efficiency, and interpretability through advanced optimization techniques.Key words: Brain tumors, MRI classification, EfficientNetV2, Grad-CAM, Deep learning.
