Abstract—Brain cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers that can attack anyone, so early detection needs to be done so that brain cancer can be treated quickly. The purpose of this study is to develop a new procedure of modeling radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) using singular value decomposition (SVD) method and to apply the procedure to diagnose brain cancer. This study uses 114 brain Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI). The RBFNN model is constructed by using steps as follows; image preprocessing, image extracting using Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM), determining of parameters of radial basis function and determining of weights of neural network. The input variables are 14 features of image extractions and the output variable is a classification of brain cancer. Before learning process, the input data is normalized. The modeling is done by using K-means clustering method where the activation function in the hidden layer is Gaussian function and by determining the optimum weights of the model using SVD method. The best RBFNN model is 14 input neurons, 10 hidden layer neurons, and 1 output neuron. The results show that the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of RBFNN diagnoses with backpropagation equal to those of RBFNN with SVD. However, the RBFNN-SVD delivers an advantage in the running speed of the program.
