MRI Image Segmentation Using Unsupervised Clustering Techniques

Abstract: In medical image visualization and analysis, segmentation is an indispensable step in the processing of images. MR has become a particularly useful medical diagnostic tool for cases involving soft tissues, such as in brain imaging. The aim of our research is to develop an effective algorithm for the segmentation of the MRI images. This paper discusses the use and implementation of Fuzzy C Means Clustering and genetic algorithm (GA) for an automatic segmentation of White Matter (WM), Gray Matter (GM), Cerebro S… Show more

“…For example Lee and Street [2] have used neuro-fuzzy approach to segment humans in video sequences whereas Selvathi et al [3] combined a genetic algorithm and fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering to the MRI segmentation problem. Spatial information can be included into such frameworks for increased accuracy.…”

“…The system consists of four major components: image preprocessing, nuclei segmentation, nuclei tracking, and cell phase identification. Although a lot of previous work has focused on some subproblems such as segmentation and cell phase identification [2], [4], [5], it is difficult to consider the problems from a systematic view due to error propagation. On the other hand, from a systematic view, there is additional information available for improving the performance of the whole system.…”
