A robust validity index for fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The purpose of fuzzy clustering is to partition a given set of training data into several different clusters that can then be modeled by fuzzy theory. The FCM algorithm has become the most widely used method in fuzzy clustering. Although, there are some successful applications of FCM have been proposed, a disad...

This paper presents a detailed study and comparison of some Kernelized Fuzzy C-means Clustering based image segmentation algorithms Four algorithms have been used Fuzzy Clustering, Fuzzy CMeans(FCM) algorithm, Kernel Fuzzy CMeans(KFCM), Intuitionistic Kernelized Fuzzy CMeans(KIFCM), Kernelized Type-II Fuzzy CMeans(KT2FCM).The four algorithms are studied and analyzed both quantitatively and qual...

C security has become an increasingly vital field in computer science in response to the proliferation of private sensitive information. The term “Intrusion” refers to any unauthorized access which attempts to compromise confidentiality, integrity and availability of information resources [1] [14] [32]. Traditional intrusion prevention techniques such as firewalls, access control and encryption...

Based on the basic theory of fuzzy set, this paper suggests the notion of FCM fuzzy set, which is subject to the constraint condition of fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm. The cluster fuzzy degree and the lattice degree of approaching for the FCM fuzzy set are presented, and their functions in the validation process of fuzzy clustering are deeply analyzed. A new cluster validity index is propo...

Clustering is an important technique for unsupervised image segmentation. The use of fuzzy c-means clustering can provide more information and better partitions than traditional c-means. In image processing, the ability to reduce the precision of the input data and aggregate similar examples can lead to significant data reduction and correspondingly less execution time. This paper discusses brF...

The popular fuzzy c-means algorithm (FCM) converges to a local minimum of the objective function. Hence, different initializations may lead to different results. The important issue is how to avoid getting a bad local minimum value to improve the cluster accuracy. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a popular and robust strategy for optimization problems. But the main difficulty in applyin...

Clustering algorithm is very important for data mining. Fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm is one of the earliest goal-function clustering algorithms, which has achieved much attention. This paper analyzes the lack of fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm and genetic clustering algorithm. Propose a hybrid clustering algorithm based on immune single genetic and fuzzy C-means. This algorithm uses the fuz...

Fuzzy clustering has been widely used for analysis of gene expression microarray data. However, most fuzzy clustering algorithms require complete datasets and, because of technical limitations, most microarray datasets have missing values. To address this problem, we present a new algorithm where genes are clustered using the Fuzzy C-Means algorithm (FCM). The fuzzy partition obtained is then u...

Fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering has been widely used in image segmentation. However, in spite of its computational efficiency and wide spread popularity, the FCM algorithm does not take the spatial information of pixels into consideration, and hence may result in low robustness to noise and less accurate segmentation. In this paper, a modified adaptive fuzzy c-means clustering (AFCM) algorithm i...

Clustering is the process of grouping data objects into set of disjointed classes called clusters so that objects within a class are highly similar to one another and dissimilar to the objects in other classes. K-means (KM) and Fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithms are popular and powerful methods for cluster analysis. However, the KM and FCM algorithms have considerable trouble in a noisy environment...
