Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) image segmentation is one of the critical technologies of clinical medicine, and is the basis of three-dimensional reconstruction and downstream analysis between normal tissues and diseased tissues. However, there are various limitations in brain MRI images, such as gray irregularities, noise, and low contrast, reducing the accuracy of the brain MRI images segmentation. In this paper, we propose two optimization solutions for the fuzzy clustering algorithm based on local Gaussian probability fuzzy C-means (LGP-FCM) model and anisotropic weight fuzzy C-means (AW-FCM) model and apply it in brain MRI image segmentation. An FCM clustering algorithm is proposed based on AW-FCM. By introducing the new neighborhood weight calculation method, each point has the weight of anisotropy, effectively overcomes the influence of noise on the image segmentation. In addition, the LGP model is introduced in the objective function of fuzzy clustering, and a fuzzy clustering segmentation algorithm based on LGP-FCM is proposed. A clustering segmentation algorithm of adaptive scale fuzzy LGP model is proposed. The neighborhood scale corresponding to each pixel in the image is automatically estimated, which improves the robustness of the model and achieves the purpose of precise segmentation. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed LGP-FCM algorithm outperforms comparison algorithms in terms of sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. LGP-FCM can effectively segment the target regions from brain MRI images.
