Abstract

In this paper, a new Backpropagation Neural Network-based noise estimation method is proposed to estimate Rician noise from MRI images. To Trained BNN features of the MRI image such as contrast, homogeneity, dissimilarity, asm, energy, entropy, meanx, meany, meanglcm, varx, vary, varglcm, correlation, skewx, skewy, skew, kurtosisx, kurtosisy, kurtosis etc are used. For training to BNN four hundred fifty images are used which are downloaded from Brain web.
