Fuzzy c-means clustering is a popular image segmentation technique, in which a single pixel belongs to multiple clusters, with varying degree of membership. The main drawback of this method is it sensitive to noise. This method can be improved by incorporating multiresolution stationary wavelet analysis. In this paper we develop a robust image segmentation method using Fuzzy c-means clustering and wavelet transform. The experimental result shows that the proposed method is more accurate than the Fuzzy c-means clustering.

We present a sample-efficient image segmentation method using active learning, we call it Active Bayesian UNet, or AB-UNet. This is a convolutional neural network using batch normalization and max-pool dropout. The Bayesian setup is achieved by exploiting the probabilistic extension of the dropout mechanism, leading to the possibility to use the uncertainty inherently present in the system. We set up our experiments on various medical image datasets and highlight that with a smaller annotation effort our AB-UNet leads to stable training and better generalization. Added to this, we can efficiently choose from an unlabelled dataset.

Edge detection and thresholding segmentation algorithms are presented and tested with variety of grayscale images in different fields. In order to analyze and evaluate the quality of image segmentation, Root Mean Square Error is used. The smaller error value is, the better image segmentation effect is. The experimental results show that a segmentation method is not suitable for all images segmentation.
