Brain MR Image Segmentation using Coherent Local Intensity Clustering Phenomena
Keywords:
MRI, Image Segmentation, Intensity inhomogeneity, Energy minimization, Bias field estimation.Abstract
Bias field estimation and classification is one of the important task in medical image analysis. In this paper
a new unified Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) Segmentation algorithm present which simultaneously segments,
estimates the bias field and removes the noise in MRI with the same Energy model. The total invariant term introduced to
the coherent local intensity clustering phenomena function for solving the nonconvex problem with membership function.
The quantitative comparison and evolution is done with Fuzzy C Means (FCM), Modified Fuzzy C Means (MFCM) and
Multiplicative Intrinsic Component Optimization (MICO). The performance evolution is done inters of Jccard Similarity
Index (JSI) and Timing analysis. The proposed method shows better time response.
