This paper presents an idea of clustering resolution. On the basis of the idea, fuzzy clustering algorithms based on resolution are deduced, which naturally comprise a set of clustering algorithms. Thus, c-means algorithm and fuzzy c-means algorithms are actually special examples in the set. As an a

โฆ Synopsis
This paper proposes a classi"cation of fuzzy distances with respect to the requirements needed for applications in image processing under imprecision. We distinguish, on the one hand, distances that basically compare only the membership functions representing the concerned fuzzy objects, and, on the other hand, distances that combine spatial distance between objects and membership functions. To our point of view, the second class of methods "nds more general applications in image processing since these methods take into account both spatial information and information related to the imprecision attached to the image objects. New distances based on mathematical morphology are proposed in this second class.

We develop a new class of non-Gaussian multiscale stochastic processes defined by random cascades on trees of multiresolution coefficients. These cascades reproduce a semiparametric class of random variables known as Gaussian scale mixtures, members of which include many of the best known, heavy-tai
