A Local Neighborhood Robust Fuzzy Clustering Image Segmentation Algorithm Based on an Adaptive Feature Selection Gaussian Mixture Model.

Abstract

Since the fuzzy local information C-means (FLICM) segmentation algorithm cannot take into account the impact of different features on clustering segmentation results, a local fuzzy clustering segmentation algorithm based on a feature selection Gaussian mixture model was proposed. First, the constraints of the membership degree on the spatial distance were added to the local information function. Second, the feature saliency was introduced into the objective function. By using the Lagrange multiplier method, the optimal expression of the objective function was solved. Neighborhood weighting information was added to the iteration expression of the classification membership degree to obtain a local feature selection based on feature selection. Each of the improved FLICM algorithm, the fuzzy C-means with spatial constraints (FCM_S) algorithm, and the original FLICM algorithm were then used to cluster and segment the interference images of Gaussian noise, salt-and-pepper noise, multiplicative noise, and mixed noise. The performances of the peak signal-to-noise ratio and error rate of the segmentation results were compared with each other. At the same time, the iteration time and number of iterations used to converge the objective function of the algorithm were compared. In summary, the improved algorithm significantly improved the ability of image noise suppression under strong noise interference, improved the efficiency of operation, facilitated remote sensing image capture under strong noise interference, and promoted the development of a robust anti-noise fuzzy clustering algorithm.
