Traditional Fuzzy C-means segmentation algorithm requires to set clustering number in advance, and to calculate image clustering center by the iterative arithmetic. So the traditional algorithm is sensitive to the initial value and the computation complexity is high. In order to improve the traditional Fuzzy Cmeans algorithm, this paper presents an infrared image segmentation method using adapt...

Nowadays, the Fuzzy C-Means method has become one of the most popular clustering methods based on minimization of a criterion function. However, the performance of this clustering algorithm may be significantly degraded in the presence of noise. This paper presents a robust clustering algorithm called Bilateral Weighted Fuzzy CMeans (BWFCM). We used a new objective function that uses some k...

A simple and effective fuzzy clustering approach is presented for fuzzy modeling from industrial data. In this approach, fuzzy clustering is implemented in two phases: data compression by a self-organizing network, and fuzzy partitioning via fuzzy cmeans clustering associated with a proposed cluster validity measure. The approach is used to extract fuzzy models from data and find out the optima...

We show that the results obtained through clusteringbased image segmentation of single or multi-component images can be improved by a fuzzy relaxation of the degrees of membership in the image space. We illustrate the point through two clustering techniques: the fuzzy Cmeans (FCM) technique and a clustering technique based on the estimation of the probability density function (pdf).

Image segmentation plays an important role in image analysis. It is one of the first and most important tasks in image analysis and computer vision. This proposed system presents a variation of fuzzy cmeans algorithm that provides image clustering. Based on the Mercer kernel, the kernel fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm (KFCM) is derived from the fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm (FCM).The KF...

The well-known generalisation of hard Cmeans (HCM) clustering is fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering where a weight exponent on each fuzzy membership is introduced as the degree of fuzziness. An alternative generalisation of HCM clustering is proposed in this paper. This is called fuzzy entropy (FE) clustering where a weight factor of the fuzzy entropy function is introduced as the degree of fuzzy e...

In Data mining, Fuzzy clustering algorithms have demonstrated advantage over crisp clustering algorithms in dealing with the challenges posed by large collections of vague and uncertain natural data. This paper reviews concept of fuzzy logic and fuzzy clustering. The classical fuzzy c-means algorithm is presented and its limitations are highlighted. Based on the study of the fuzzy c-means algor...

Data clustering is a process of putting similar data into groups. A clustering algorithm partitions a data set into several groups such that the similarity within a group is larger than among groups. This paper reviews four of the most representative off-line clustering techniques: K-means clustering, Fuzzy Cmeans clustering, Mountain clustering, and Subtractive clustering. The techniques are i...
