Fuzzy Image Labeling by Partially Supervised Shape Clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a fuzzy shape annotation approach for automatic image labeling is presented. A fuzzy clustering process guided by partial supervision is applied to shapes represented by Fourier descriptors in order to derive a set of shape prototypes representative of a number of semantic categories. Next, prototypes are manually annotated by attaching textual labels related to semantic categories. Based on the labeled prototypes, a new shape is automatically labeled by associating a fuzzy set that provides membership degrees of the shape to all semantic categories. Experimental results are provided in order to show the suitability of the proposed approach.

Shape Retrieval by Partially Supervised Fuzzy Clustering
In this work we propose the use of partially supervised fuzzy clustering to create a two-level indexing structure useful for enabling efficient shape retrieval. Similar shapes are grouped by a fuzzy clustering algorithm that embeds a partial supervision mechanism exploiting domain knowledge expressed in terms of a set of labeled shapes. After clustering, a set of prototypes representative of sh...
متن کاملImage Segmentation: Type–2 Fuzzy Possibilistic C-Mean Clustering Approach
Image segmentation is an essential issue in image description and classification. Currently, in many real applications, segmentation is still mainly manual or strongly supervised by a human expert, which makes it irreproducible and deteriorating. Moreover, there are many uncertainties and vagueness in images, which crisp clustering and even Type-1 fuzzy clustering could not handle. Hence, Type-...

متن کاملSemi-supervised Clustering in Fuzzy Rule Generation
Inductive learning approaches traditionally categorized as supervised, which use labeled data sets, and unsupervised, which use unlabeled data sets in learning tasks. The great volume of available data and the cost involved in manual labeling has motivated the investigation of different solutions for machine learning tasks related to unlabeled data. The approach proposed here fits into this con...
متن کاملPattern classification and clustering: A review of partially supervised learning approaches
The paper categorizes and reviews the state-of-the-art approaches to the partially supervised learning (PSL) task. Special emphasis is put on the fields of pattern recognition and clustering involving partially (or, weakly) labeled data sets. The major instances of PSL techniques are categorized into the following taxonomy: (i) active learning for training set design, where the learning algorit...
