This paper presents a novel fuzzy energy minimization method for simultaneous segmentation and bias field estimation of medical images. We first define an objective function based on a localized fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering for the image intensities in a neighborhood around each point. Then, this objective function is integrated with respect to the neighborhood center over the entire image do...

In this paper we introduce the notion of fuzzy bitopological ideals .The concept of fuzzy pairwise local function is also introduced here by utilizing the q-neighborhood structure for a fuzzy topological space .These concepts are discussed fuzzy bitopologies and several relations between different fuzzy bitopological ideals .

The main purpose of this paper is to achieve improvement in thespeed of Fuzzy Joint Points (FJP) algorithm. Since FJP approach is a basisfor fuzzy neighborhood based clustering algorithms such as Noise-Robust FJP(NRFJP) and Fuzzy Neighborhood DBSCAN (FN-DBSCAN), improving FJPalgorithm would an important achievement in terms of these FJP-based meth-ods. Although FJP has many advantages such as r...

We study the fuzzy soft proximity spaces in Katsaras's sense. First, we show how a fuzzy soft topology is derived from a fuzzy soft proximity. Also, we define the notion of fuzzy soft δ-neighborhood in the fuzzy soft proximity space which offers an alternative approach to the study of fuzzy soft proximity spaces. Later, we obtain the initial fuzzy soft proximity determined by a family of fuzzy ...

Fuzzy c-means clustering method for segmenting even the colour images is dealt with this work. Here the seegmentation method is based on a basic region growing method and uses membership grades’ of pixels to classify pixels into appropriate segments. The methodology incorporates the property of utilizing the extended feature space of an image to obtain better segmentation. Images which are in R...

Middle spatial resolution multi-spectral remote sensing image is a kind of color image with low contrast, fuzzy boundaries and informative features. In view of these features, the fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm is an ideal choice for image segmentation. However, fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm requires a pre-specified number of clusters and costs large computation time, which is easy to ...

In the last decades, many efforts have been made to solve multimodal optimization problems using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). To produce good results, these PSO algorithms need to specify some niching parameters to define the local neighborhood. In this paper, our motivation is to propose the novel neighborhood structures that remove undesirable niching parameters without sacrificing perf...
