In this experiment, there was one type of real brain MR images. In order to evaluate the performance of the UVSRG, the widely used c-means method (also known as k-means) is used for comparative analysis. The reason to select the c-means method is because it is a spatial-based pattern classification technique. In order to make a fair comparison, the implemented c-means method always designates the desired target signature d as one of its class means with d fixed during iterations.
