This paper proposes a context-aware deep learning approach for brain tumor segmentation, subtype classification, and survival prediction using multimodal magnetic resonance images (mMRI). A 3D context-aware deep learning model addresses the uncertainty of tumor location, followed by a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) for subtype classification and a hybrid deep learning/machine learning method for survival prediction. Evaluated on the BraTS 2019 and CPM-RadPath 2019 datasets, the method shows robust performance, achieving second place in the CPM-RadPath 2019 challenge's testing phase.
