Segmentation of dental X-ray images in medical imaging using neutrosophic orthogonal matrices

作者:

Highlights:

• We focused on enhancing the accuracy of segmentation from dental X-Ray images.

• A new fuzzy clustering based on neutrosophic orthogonal matrix was given.

• It computes inner products of cutting matrix and segments by orthogonal principle.

• It was validated on real dental datasets of Hanoi Medical University Hospital.

• It has better accuracy than the relevant methods.
