Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The main aim of this paper is to segment leukocytes in blood smear images using interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs). Generally, uncertainties occur in terms of vagueness through brightness levels of image. Processing of such uncertain images can be efficiently handled by using fuzzy sets, particularly IVIFSs.
