FPGA implementation on MRI brain classification using support vector machine

The field of medical imaging gains its importance with in crease in the need of automated and efficient diagnosis in a short period of time. Brain images have been selected for the image references since injuries to the brain tend to affect other organs. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an imagin...
