摘要
In order to make use of the flexibility of fuzzy clustering methods and the sound special modeling capacities of region-level Markov random field models (RMRF), this paper attempts to combine RMRFbased image segmentation with the fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm and proposes an unsupervised segmentation algorithm, named FCM-RMRF. It uses the energy function of RMRF-based segmentation algorithm to define the dissimilarity function of FCM, which makes it possible to take into account both large-scale interactions between image regions and fuzzy nature of fuzzy clustering. Experiments on have shown that the proposed method can obtain more accurate segmentation results. ©, 2015, Journal of Computational Information Systems. All right reserved.
