Abstract Image classification consists of image processing algorithms for grouping cells of similar characteristics together.
Satellite image classification is essential to extract the information and identify the different components such as water dense
region, roads, vegetation etc. from the classified image. In this paper, an attempt is made to locate and identify the different
regions of interest using classification algorithms such as K means and Fuzzy-C Means. Comparison is done for both the
algorithms in terms of computational time and memory requirements. Also, the algorithms are applied for the input image by
considering different values of K and its discussion is presented in the paper. The algorithms are then applied for the given image
with edge detection operators to obtain the better visual clarity of the edges.
Keywords- K-Means, Fuzzy C-Means, Edge Detector, clustering, computational time, memory utilization.

After a thorough Literature Survey, it is found that K-Means
and Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithms are popular because of
their various advantages. Hence these two algorithms are
considered for further discussion and experimental analysis.
The outputs of K-Means and FCM algorithms will not identify
the edges distinctly and hence edge detection algorithms are
applied to the output of classification.
A. K-Means Clustering
K-means is one of the simplest unsupervised learning
algorithms that solves the well know clustering problem. It
finds a partition in which objects within each cluster are as
close to each other as possible and as far from objects in other
clusters as possible. [1][2][6]
Algorithm1) Read the image as input.
2) For separation of the colours in the image apply decorrelation stretching.
3) Place K points into the space represented by the
objects that are being clustered in the input image.
These points represent initial group centroids. The
user can define the value of k based on the image
complexity.
4) Assign each object to the group that has the closest
centroid.
5) For each data point xi, compute its membership m
( /xi) in each centre and its weight as w(xi).
6) For each centre re-calculate its location from all
data points xi according to their membership and
weights.
7) Repeat the steps 5 and 6 until convergence i.e the
change in coefficients between 2 iterations is no more
than a threshold value. This produces a separation of
the objects into groups from which the metric to be
minimized can be calculated.
The algorithm aims at minimizing an objective function. In
this case a squared error function isconsidered as objective
function. The objective function is given by

When the same value of K is applied for the input image 2b,
the results are not satisfying as there are three features in the
image, namely Vegetation, Buildings and Water body, and we
obtain only two clusters (The vegetation and buildings are
