Abstract

In the past, scholars used various computer vision and artificial intelligence methods to detect brain diseases via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this paper, we proposed a novel system to detect sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). First, we used three-level bior4.4 wavelet to decompose original brain image. Second, principal component analysis (PCA) was utilized for dimensionality reduction. Third, the generalized eigenvalue proximal support vector machine (GEPSVM) with Tikhonov regularization was employed as the classifier. The 10 repetitions of five-fold cross validation showed our method achieved an overall accuracy of 95.71 %. Our sensitivities over healthy control, left-sided SNHL, and right-sided SNHL are 96.00 %, 95.33 %, and 95.71 %, respectively. The proposed system is promising and effective in SNHL detection. It gives better performance than four state-of-the-art methods.
