In this paper, we extend the basic edge-weighted centroidal Voronoi tessellation model (EWCVT) for image segmentation to a new advanced model, namely fuzzy and harmonic EWCVT model. This extended model introduces a fuzzy and harmonic form of clustering energy by combining the image intensity with cluster boundary information. Compared with the classic CVT and EWCVT methods, the fuzzy and harmonic EWCVT algorithm can not only overcome the sensitivity to the initialization and noise, but also improve the accuracy of clustering results, as verified in several biomedical images. © 2014 Springer International Publishing.
