Medical image segmentation is an important tool in viewing and analyzing Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) and solving variousranges of problems in medical imaging. This paper focuses the new approach to segmentation by clustering the image by Genetic Algorithm based Fuzzy C-means clustering (FCM). First segmentation can be done with the help of FCM. Fuzzy C-means can be used to segment the image...

This paper, presents a new image segmentation method based on Wavelets, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and outlier rejection caused by the membership function of the kernel fuzzy local information c-means (KFLICM) algorithm combined with level set is proposed. The segmentation of Magnetic Resonance (MR) images plays an important role in the computer-aided diagnosis and clinical research, but...

The purpose of multicriteria clustering is to locate groups alternatives that have comparable qualities and been examined across multiple criteria. An ordered profile a well-known problem, the fuzzy c-means (FCM) technique one most broadly used in every field life. At present, FCM for partitioning information into numerous clusters which are still lacking priority relations. To address problem ...

The fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm has got significant importance due to its unsupervised form of learning and more tolerant to variations and noise as compared to other methods in medical image segmentation. In this paper, we propose a conditional spatial fuzzy C-means (csFCM) clustering algorithm to improve the robustness of the conventional FCM algorithm. This is achieved through the incorpor...

An improved segmentation Fuzzy C-Means algorithm (FCM) is proposed for the image recognition of transmission line insulators. In this paper, the improved Wiener filter algorithm is firstly used to filtrate and recover image in pre-processing. Then, the insulator image is segmented based on the improved algorithm FCM. Finally, the contour of insulator is labelled by using connected component lab...

In the process of image segmentation, the classic Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm is time-consuming and depends heavily on initialization center. Based on Graphic Processing Unit (GPU), this paper proposes a novel FCM algorithm by improving the computational formulas of membership degree and the update criterion of cluster centers. Our algorithm can initialize cluster centers purposefully and fur...

Many variants of fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering method are applied to crisp numbers but only a few of them are extended to non-crisp numbers, mainly due to the fact that the latter needs complicated equations and exhausting calculations. Vector form of fuzzy c-means (VFCM), proposed in this paper, simplifies the FCM clustering method applying to non-crisp (symbolic interval and fuzzy) numbers. ...

Flow cytometry (FCM) permits high speed measurement of fluorescence from individual cells flowing in a liquid medium. Cells stained with fluorescent dyes that bind specifically and proportionally to desoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) emit fluorescence that reflects their DNA content. Since neoplastic cells often contain abnormal amounts of DNA, FCM can be used as a rapid means to detect neoplasia. Fl...

Soft Clustering plays a very important rule on clustering real world data where a data item contributes to more than one cluster. Fuzzy logic based algorithms are always suitable for performing soft clustering tasks. Fuzzy C Means (FCM) algorithm is a very popular fuzzy logic based algorithm. In case of fuzzy logic based algorithm, the parameter like exponent for the partition matrix that we ha...
