[0003] At present, many image segmentation methods based on fuzzy C-means clustering (FCM) have been proposed. FCM is suitable for the characteristics of uncertainty and fuzziness in images. It is an unsupervised classification method, and the segmentation process does not require any manual intervention. , suitable for the field of automatic segmentation, so the FCM segmentation method has the characteristics of strong adaptability and fast convergence speed. The disadvantage of FCM is that the FCM algorithm is sensitive to the initial clustering center value, and it is easy to converge to the local optimal value. Does not consider the spatial domain information of pixels, is sensitive to noise, and has low robustness
Compared with the traditional fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm, this method introduces a weighted fuzzy factor into the objective function, which contains the domain information of the image, so that more details of the im

The filtering parameter h in the non-local mean filtering algorithm has a great influence on the effectiveness of filtering. When the filtering parameter h is set too small or too large, the ideal filtering effect cannot be obtained. Moreover, the filter parameter h should be adjusted according to the degree of noise of the image. The specific steps include:
