Abstract

As we know that brain tumour detection is a very crucial task, so in this paper we have tried to focus on this matter using image clustering, which is a process of grouping together of pixels having similar attributes. Previously many researches have been done in this field using clustering methods. Here we will use some of the famous clustering methods like the K-means Clustering and the Fuzzy C-means Clustering for the said purpose of tumour detection.
