Abstract: Peripheral nerve sliced microscopic images have the characteristics of complex background，discontinuous regions and non-uniform illumination.It is difficult to apply classical image segmentation algorithms to obtain a valid segmentation result.By combining the probability of the initial membership functions and space distance to design the space function of SFCM clustering algorithm，it proposes SFCM color image segmentation method in this paper.The image color space is converted from RGB to HIS color space.Cluster validity function is used to define the number of clusters of each component and initialize the algorithm with the algorithm of FCM based on image histogram.SFCM is applied separately on each component of HSI model，and each component is combined and displayed in RGB model.The experimental results show that compared with the standard FCM clustering segmentation algorithm，the new method is more effective for segmenting discontinuous nerve sliced microscopic images.
