Abstract
In recent years, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has garnered significant attention as a severe cerebrovascular disorder. To enhance the accuracy of ICH detection and segmentation, this study proposed an improved fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm and performed a comparative analysis with both traditional FCM and advanced convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithms. Experiments conducted on the publicly available CT-ICH dataset evaluated the performance of these three algorithms in predicting ICH volume. The results demonstrated that the improved FCM algorithm offered notable improvements in computational time and resource consumption compared to the traditional FCM algorithm, while also showing enhanced accuracy. However, it still lagged behind the CNN algorithm in areas such as feature extraction, model generalization, and the ability to handle complex image structures. The study concluded with a discussion of potential directions for further optimizing the FCM algorithm, aiming to bridge the performance gap with CNN algorithms and provide a reference for future research in medical image processing.
