Segmentation is a process of partitioning the image into several objects. It plays a vital role in many fields such as satellite, remote sensing, object identification, face tracking and most importantly medical applications. Here in this paper, we here supposed to propose a novel image segmentation using iterative partitioning mean shift clustering algorithm, which overcomes the drawbacks of conventional clustering algorithms and provides a good segmented images. Simulation performance shows that the proposed scheme has performed superior to the existing clustering methods.

To acquire more accurate cT image segmentation results of gallstone, this paper presents a Lore-Based FcM algorithm to conquer the deficiency of tradition FcM method. A penalty term is introduced to objective function to enlarge the range of specified class and achieve higher segmentation accuracy. The result of simulation shows that Lore-Based FcM can obviously improve the segmentation quality. The improved algorithm is more rapid and efficiency than the traditional FcM.

Medical image segmentation plays an important role in medical image analysis and visualization. The fuzzyc-means (FcM) is one of the well-known methods in the practical applications of medical image segmentation. FcM, however, demands tremendous computational throughput and memory requirements due to a clustering process in which the pixels are classified into the attributed regions based on the global information of gray level distribution and spatial connectivity. In this paper, we present a parallel implementation of FcM using a representative data parallel architecture to overcome computational requirements as well as to create an intelligent system for medical image segmentation. Experimental results indicate that our parallel approach achieves a speedup of 1000x over the existing faster FcM method and provides reliable and efficient processing on cT and MRI image segmentation.

fuzzyc-means (FcM) algorithm is one of effective methods for fuzzycluster analysis, which has widely used in unsupervised pattern classification. To consider the different contribution of each dimensional feature of the given samples to be classified, this paper presents a novel FcM clustering algorithm based on feature weighted. With clustering validity function as criterion, the proposed algorithm optimizes the weight matrix using evolutionary strategy and obtains better result than the traditional one, which enriches the theory of FcM-type algorithms. The test experiment with real data of IRIS demonstrates the effectiveness of the novel algorithm.

The automatic diagnosis of breast cancer is an important, real-world medical problem. A major class of problems in Medical Science involves the diagnosis of disease, based upon various tests performed upon the patient. When several tests are involved, the ultimate diagnosis may be difficult to obtain, even for a medical expert. This has given rise, over the past few decades, to computerized diagnostic tools, intended to aid the Physician in making sense out of the confusion of data. This Paper carried out to generate and evaluate both fuzzy and neural network models to predict malignancy of breast tumor, using Wisconsin Diagnosis Breast cancer Database (WDBc). Our objectives in this Paper are: (i) to compare the diagnostic performance of fuzzy and neural network models in distinction between malignance and benign patterns, (ii) to reduce the number of benign cases sent for biopsy using the best model as a supportive tool, and (iii) to validate the capability of each model to recognize new cases.

The effect of partial volume related to anatomical MRI and functional images limit the diagnostic potential of brain imaging. To remedy for this problem, we propose a fuzzy-genetic brain segmentation scheme for the assessment of white matter, gray matter and cerebrospinal fluid volumes, from brain images of Alzheimer patients from a real database. This clustering process based on Possibilisticc-means (PcM) algorithm, which allows modeling the degree of relationship between each voxels and a given tissue;and based on fuzzy genetic initialization for the centers of clusters by a fuzzyc-means (FcM) algorithm, and for which the result is optimized by genetic process. The visual results show a concordance between the ground truth segmentation and the hybrid algorithm results, which allows efficient tissue classification. The superiority was also proved with the quantitative results of the proposed method in comparison with the both conventional FcM and PcM algorithms.

Trust is an agent's expectation of other agent's capability, which needs to be confirmed by experience of various peer agents in application domain about capability of agent. Majority view of peer agents materializes into reputation of agent. In our model trustier agent computes reputation based on its own experience as well as experience peer agents have with trustee agent. The trustier agent interacts with peer agents to get their experience information inform of recommendations. The concept of reputation is subjective and Intuitionisticfuzzy Sets (IFS) are used in this paper to model reputation. fuzzy hierarchical agglomerative clustering is done to filter off the noise in IFS recommendations in form of outliers by cutting dendogram at required similarity level. The cluster with maximum number of elements denotes views of majority of recommenders and its center represents reputation Of trustee agent, which is computed using fuzzy c-means algorithm.

This paper proposes an algorithm named Tower Layered FcM to improve the traditional FcM method. A Tower layered structure with a constraint is added into the objective function and pixel's neighbor information is rational used. The Tower layered structure can speed up the algorithm and constraint the subordinate degree of pixels. So the subordinate degree of clustering center is made more reasonable. The experimental result shows that the new algorithmcan save detail image information and it is more efficient than the traditional FcM.

Data mining is one of the interesting research areas in database technology. In data mining, a cluster is a set of data objects that are similar to one another with in a cluster and are different to the entities in the former clusters. clustering is the efficient method in data mining in order to process huge data sets. The core methodology of clustering is used in many domains like academic result analysis of institutions. Also, the methods are very well suited in machine learning, clustering in medical dataset, pattern recognition, image mining, information retrieval and bioinformatics. The clustering algorithms are categorized based upon different research phenomenon. Varieties of algorithms have recently occurred and were effectively applied to real-life data mining problems. This survey mainly focuses on partition based clustering algorithms namely k-means, k-Medoids and fuzzyc-means In particular, they applied mostly in medical data sets. The importance of the survey is to explore the various applications in different domains.

This paper presents a novel image processing procedure dedicated to the automated detection of the medial axis of the root canal from dental micro cT records. The 3D model of root canal is built up from several hundreds of parallel cross sections, using image enhancement and segmentation, center point detection in the segmented slice, three dimensional inner surface reconstruction and morphological skeleton extraction in three dimensions. The central line of the root canal is is interpolated as a 3D spline curve. The proposed procedure can help prepare several kinds of endodontic interventions.
