Abstract :
Within this work a method for knowledge based fuzzy image segmentation is introduced. The basic idea comes from the field of automated medical MRI segmentation where the well-known standard methods have proven insufficient to solve the task. Therefore, a method especially for the problems concerning vagueness in medical imaging has been developed. Beside the improved segmentation procedures, the development has a general impact on the conventional model of image analysis
