Abstract

BACKGROUND: This research investigates the impact of pruning on reducing the computational complexity of a five-layered Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) designed for classifying MRI brain tumors. The study focuses on enhancing the efficiency of the model by removing less important weights and neurons through pruning.
