A novel image segmentation method based on modified fuzzy c-means (FCM) is proposed in this paper. By using the neighborhood pixels as spatial information, a spatial constraint penalty term is added in the objective function of standard FCM to improve the robustness. Meanwhile, the neighbor pixels information is used selectively to reduce computing time and iterations. Experiments on real images segmentation proved the availability of the improvement. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
