Automatic Fuzzy Clustering Framework for Image Segmentation

Abstract: Clustering algorithms by minimizing an object function share a clear drawback that the number of clusters need to be set manually. Although density peak clustering is able to seek the number of clusters, it suffers from memory overflow when it is used for image segmentation because a moderate-size image usually includes a large number of pixels leading to a huge similarity matrix. To address the issue, here we proposed an automatic fuzzy clustering framework (AFCF) for image segmentation. The proposed framewor… Show more

“…In this paper, nine popular clustering-based image segmentation algorithms are considered. They are HMRF-FCM [46], FLICM [11], KWFLICM [13], Liu's algorithm [21], FRFCM [19], DSFCM_N [14], FNCut [28], SFFCM [22], and AFCF [36]. All these comparative algorithms and experimental evaluation are implemented with MATLAB 2018b and performed on a DELL desktop with Intel(R) Core (TM) CPU, i7-6700, 3.4GHz, 16GB RAM.…”

“…Two different methods have been selected for the generation of the boundary images: the superpixel-based clustering approach by Lei et al [79] , a modern method adhering to current trends in boundary detection and segmentation, and the Canny method [80] , a well-known representative of gradient-based boundary detection methods.…”

“…Therefore, a middle-size window like 3 × 3 or 5 × 5 is popular for these algorithms since the window achieves a balance between spatial information and computational cost. To overcome the limitation of fixed-size windows, some researchers employ superpixel techniques to obtain adaptive neighboring information such as Liu's algorithm [35], FDCM_SSR [36], SFFCM [37], AFCA [38], etc. Although the second strategy improves segmentation accuracy due to the utilization of adaptive neighboring information, these algorithms seriously depend on the selection of superpixel algorithms [39][40][41].…”
