چکیده مقاله:

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-2 fuzzy clustering is the most preferred method. In recent years, neurology and neuroscience have been significantly advanced by imaging tools, which typically involve vast amount of data and many uncertainties. Therefore, Type-2 fuzzy clustering methods could process these images more efficient and could provide better performance. The focus of this paper is to segment the brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in to essential clusters based on Type-2 Possibilistic C-Mean (PCM) method. The results show that using Type-2 PCM method provides better results.

Type-II Fuzzy Possibilistic C-Mean Clustering

Fuzzy clustering is well known as a robust and efficient way to reduce computation cost to obtain the better results. In the literature, many robust fuzzy clustering models have been presented such as Fuzzy C-Mean (FCM) and Possibilistic C-Mean (PCM), where these methods are Type-I Fuzzy clustering. Type-II Fuzzy sets, on the other hand, can provide better performance than Type-I Fuzzy sets, es...

An Improved Type-2 Possibilistic Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Algorithm with Application for MR Image Segmentation

This paper presents a new clustering algorithm named improved type-2 possibilistic fuzzy c-means (IT2PFCM) for fuzzy segmentation of magnetic resonance imaging, which combines the advantages of type 2 fuzzy set, the fuzzy c-means (FCM) and Possibilistic fuzzy c-means clustering (PFCM). First of all, the type 2 fuzzy is used to fuse the membership function of the two segmentation algorithms (FCM...

A clustering fuzzy approach for image segmentation

Segmentation is a fundamental step in image description or classi1cation. In recent years, several computational models have been used to implement segmentation methods but without establishing a single analytic solution. However, the intrinsic properties of neural networks make them an interesting approach, despite some measure of ine5ciency. This paper presents a clustering approach for image...

Fuzzy Image Segmentation using Suppressed Fuzzy C- Means Clustering

Clustering algorithms are highly dependent on the features used and the type of the objects in a particular image. By considering object similar surface variations (SSV) as well as the arbitrariness of the fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm for pixel location, a fuzzy image segmentation considering object surface similarity (FSOS) algorithm was developed, but it was unable to segment objects having ...
