Abstract
In this study, a cascade algorithm combined Kohonen feature map with FCM was applied to segment the MR brain images. The method we proposed was proved to have better performance than FCM method usually used in image segmentation research. Because the algorithm is unsupervised, it can reduce the errors caused by intraobserver and interobserver estimation. In this paper, we also utilized the MR images acquired by PAIR protocol to verify the result of the image segmentation.
