Adaptive kernelized evidential clustering for automatic 3D tumor segmentation in FDG–PET images

Automatically and reliably delineating tumor contours in noisy and blurring PET images is a challenging work in clinical oncology. In this paper, we introduce a specific unsupervised learning method to this end. More specifically, a robust clustering algorithm with spatial knowledge enhancement is d...
