Abstract
Accurate brain tumor segmentation from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains challenging due to heterogeneous tumor morphology, intensity variability, and multi-scale structural complexity. This study proposes a DeepLabV3+-based segmentation framework integrating a VGG19-UNet encoder, Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP), and low-level feature refinement to simultaneously capture hierarchical semantics and boundary-sensitive spatial details. The architecture enhances receptive field coverage without additional downsampling while preserving fine-grained contour information during reconstruction. Extensive evaluation was conducted on the Figshare Brain Tumor Segmentation (FBTS) dataset and the BraTS 2021 and BraTS 2018 benchmarks, focusing on Whole Tumor segmentation across multiple MRI modalities and tumor grades. Under five-fold cross-validation, the proposed model achieved a mean Dice Similarity Coefficient of 0.9717 and Jaccard Index of 0.9456 on FBTS, with stable and competitive performance across FLAIR, T1, T2, and T1CE modalities in both HGG and LGG cases. Boundary-level analysis further confirmed controlled Hausdorff Distance and low Average Symmetric Surface Distance. Statistical validation and ablation analysis demonstrate consistent improvements over baseline U-Net configurations. The proposed framework provides a robust and computationally efficient solution for automated brain tumor segmentation across heterogeneous datasets.
