Effectiveness of the FCM Clustering Algorithm for Detection of Brain Tumor Using Image Segmentation

Abstract

Brain tumor is one of the dangerous and critical disease which is even hard to get detected without any medical test for example CT scan, MRI Scan. Image segmentation is a process that works by segregating any arbitrary image into non-intersecting regions. The regions obtained after the division should be such that each region is homogenous and the union of any two adjacent regions is heterogeneous. New image segmentation is a method by combining the FCM clustering algorithm with a rough set theory. The rough-fuzzy c-means algorithm is presented for segmentation of brain images. The main focus of the work, based on human MRI brain image, is to optimize the segmentation process with higher accuracy rate. Cluster analysis recognizes collections of comparable objects and therefore helps in learning circulation of outlines in big data sets. Clustering is most widely used for real world applications. The effectiveness of the FCM algorithm, along with a comparison with other related algorithms, is demonstrated on a set of brain images. Rough set theory can be useful method to overcome such complication during image segmentation. Because of this we will use FCM clustering algorithm with a rough set theory.
