Abstract :
In this research paper, we use a normalized graph cut measure as a thresholding principle to separate an object from
the background based on the standard S membership function. The implementation of the proposed algorithm known
as fuzzy normalized graph cut method. This proposed algorithm compared with the fuzzy entropy method [25], Kittler
[11], Rosin [21], Sauvola [23] and Wolf [33] method. Moreover, we examine that in most cases, our algorithm gives the
lowest absolute error that improves the segmentation process of gray images. Finally, we change different parameter
values in fuzzy normalized graph cut and the effect of the substitutes is studied. Also, we analyze the computational
complexity of fuzzy weight matrix (fuzzification) results with a weight matrix (classical) results.
