In this letter, a novel approach for enhancing the results of fuzzy clustering by imposing spatial constraints for solving image segmentation problems is presented. We have developed a Sugeno-type rule-based system [9] with three inputs and 11 rules that interacts with the clustering results obtained by the well-known FCM and/or PCM algorithms. It provides good image segmentations in terms of region smoothness and elimination of the effects of noise. The results of the proposed rule-based neighborhood enhancement (RB-NE) system are compared to well-known segmentation algorithms using stochastic field modeling. They are found to be of comparable quality, while being of lower computational complexity.
