Abstract

Medical image segmentation is critical in advancing healthcare systems, notably disease finding and medication scheduling. Because of its simplicity and efficacy, fuzzy c-means-based clustering emerged as an efficient algorithm for lesion extraction. The downsides of FCM include its sensitivity to beginning values, quick descent on local minima, and noise exposure. This study proposes a raindrop optimization idea, a soft clustering-based medical image segmentation algorithm with a noise reduction mechanism. A hybrid filter is a smoothing filter to exclude any potential interference in the image. The procedure implemented in MATLAB software detects and extracts tumors from brain magnetic resonance images from the BraTS data set. A comparative study of the proposed method with some cluster-based segmentation techniques reveals that the suggested system performs significantly better than the current cluster-based segmentation methods.
