Multi-view fuzzy clustering analysis is often used for medical image segmentation such as brain MR image segmentation. However, in traditional multi-view clustering, it assumes that each view plays the same role to the final partition result, which omits the negative influences caused by noisy or weak views. In this paper, a novel entropy weighting based centralized clustering technique is proposed for multi-view datasets where the Shannon entropy is hired for view weight learning. Moreover, the centralized strategy is employed for collaborate learning. Extensive experiments show that the promising performance of our proposed clustering technique. More importantly, a case study on brain MR image segmentation indicates the application ability of our clustering technique.

The segmentation performance is topic to suitable initialization and best configuration of supervisory parameters. In medical image segmentation, the segmentation is very important when the diagnosing becomes very hard in medical images which are not properly illuminated. This paper proposes segmentation of brain tumour image of MRI images based on spatial fuzzy clustering and level set algorithm. After performance evaluation of the proposed algorithm was carried on brain tumour images, the results showed confirm its effectiveness for medical image segmentation, where the brain tumour is detected properly.
