A Clustering-Based Possibilistic Method for Image Classification

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3171))

Abstract

This work proposes a general image classification method, based in possibility theory and clustering. We illustrate our approach with a CBERS image and compare the results obtained by applying our method to other classification methods.
