    Clustering algorithms that rely on minimizing an objective function suffer from the drawback of requiring manual setting of the number of clusters. This limitation becomes particularly evident when applied to image segmentation, where the large number of pixels can lead to memory overflow issues. To overcome this challenge, a reference of Automatic Fuzzy Clustering Framework (AFCF) for image segmentation method has been used as the comparison to the Density Peaks Clustering (DPC) algorithm. AFCF used superpixel algorithm to reduce the spatial information of data during computation, DPC algorithm to generate decision graph, and prior entropy-based fuzzy clustering (PEFC) algorithm to achieve fully automatic segmentation method in determining the number of cluster and the clustering result. In this study, 50 open-source healthy, COVID-19 and pneumonia infected radiographs dataset are acquired from the Kaggle and Github. The radiographs dataset that segmented by DPC is down sampling to 100*100 pixels due to overloading computation. At the end of the image segmentation, a segmentation performance evaluation is conducted based on sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, precision, recall, F-score and time consumed. The result shows that AFCF algorithm has the better overall performance with higher accuracy of 92.48% and F-score 0.9455. Meanwhile, the most highlighted evaluation index is drop to the time consume comparison, AFCF has around 2.7 times faster processing speed compare to DPC algorithm.

    Malaria is a pressing medical issue in tropical and subtropical regions. Currently, the manual microscopic examination remains the gold standard malaria diagnosis method. Nevertheless, this procedure required highly skilled lab technicians to prepare and examine the slides. Therefore, a framework encompassing image processing and machine learning is proposed due to inconsistencies in manual inspection, counting, and staging. Here, a standardized segmentation framework utilizing thresholding and clustering is developed to segment parasites’ stages of P. falciparum and P. vivax species. Moreover, a multi-stage classifier is designed for recognizing parasite species and staging in both species. Experimental results indicate the effectiveness of segmenting thick smear images based on Phansalkar thresholding garnered an accuracy of 99.86%. The employment of variance and new transferring process for the clustered members, enhanced k-means (EKM) clustering has successfully segmented all malaria stages with accuracy and an F1-score of 99.20% and 0.9033, respectively. In addition, the accuracies of parasite detection, species recognition, and staging obtained through a random forest (RF) accounted for 86.89%, 98.82%, and 90.78%, respectively, simultaneously. The proposed framework enables versatile malaria parasite detection and staging with an interactive result, paving the path for future improvements by utilizing the proposed framework on all others malaria species.
