Cluster validity of the fuzzy C-means algorithm in mammographic image using adaptive cluster & partition entropy indexes / Azwani Aziz

There are many techniques of clustering the image. The most widely used of clustering technique is Fuzzy C-Means algorithm (FCM). FCM is a technique that allows one piece of data to belong to two or more clusters. The important issues in clustering the image are to determine the optimal number of th...
