: I think the best introduction to fuzzy c-means is still the original
: monograph on the subject: "Pattern Recognition with Fuzzy Objective
: Function Algorithms" by J.C. Bezdek, Plenum Press 1981, 256 pp. I have

This article describe an improved FCM algorithm will keep the advantage of using
the gray_level instead the gray_function.
