Title
Robust spatial intuitionistic fuzzy C-means with city-block distance clustering for image segmentation.
Abstract
Numerous Fuzzy segmentation techniques have been proposed in the literature for Image segmentation. This paper proposes a new Novel Intuitionistic Fuzzy C-means (S-IFCM) incorporated with Spatial information to reduce noise/outliers influence. This new clustering algorithm uses City-block distance to compute the rank between two pixels. Yager's type fuzzy complement is used to compute non-membership and further hesitation degree is calculated. The new intuitionistic membership obtained is incorporated with spatial information of image for robustness to noise. Experiments are performed on various noisy images including MRI brain image, to assess the performance of the proposed algorithm. Comparison is done with existing hard, fuzzy and intuitionistic methods on the basis of entropy based segmentation accuracy and validity index. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method in contrast with other conventional methods.
