Abstract

Accurate Accurate brain tumor diagnosis from MRI images remains challenging due to dataset limitations, class imbalance, and high morphological variability across tumor types. Existing deep learning approaches often yield suboptimal results when trained on small or imbalanced datasets. This study proposes a hybrid learning strategy that integrates transfer learning with advanced data augmentation to classify four brain tumor categories: glioma, meningioma, pituitary adenoma, and normal tissue. Using a large-scale dataset of 7,023 MRI images, the proposed framework incorporates Mixup, CutMix, and a comprehensive augmentation pipeline with an optimized EfficientNet-B0 architecture. The model achieves a test accuracy of 99.05% with F1-scores of 0.99, representing a 4.05 percentage point improvement over a baseline InceptionV3 model (95.00%) and outperforming ResNet-based approaches (93.80%) reported in previous studies. This quantitative improvement demonstrates the effectiveness of combining modern CNN architectures with advanced augmentation strategies. The streamlined architecture and high accuracy make the method suitable for deployment in resource-constrained healthcare environments. These results indicate that hybrid augmentation and transfer learning can deliver clinically meaningful performance for early brain tumor identification, offering a scalable and practical solution for computer-aided medical diagnosis
