Module Description
This module computes voxel by voxel tissue classification of an MR brain image using a fuzzy c-means algortihm. Bias field is modeled as a lower order polynomial. Bias field and tissue classification are estimated iteratively in an EM fashion. Internally, each voxel is assigned tissue membership function values, which range from 0 to 1. At any voxel, the sum of membership function of all classes is either 0 (outside of brain), or 1. The membership functions are converted in tissue labels to generate hard segmentation.
