Initialization Methods For Conventional Fuzzy C-Means And Its Application Towards Colour Image Segmentation
Due to its capability in providing a particularly promising solution to clustering problems, the conventional Fuzzy C-Mean (FCM) algorithm is widely used as a segmentation method. However, it is very sensitive to the initialization conditions of number of clusters and initial cluster centres. Thus,...
