In this paper, we propose an alternative scheme to crisp image processing algorithms, especially when subjective or very sensitive parameters or concepts related to the image need to be measured or defined. It involves an image fuzzification function,fuzzy operators and an optional defuzzification function. The Applicability of the scheme is illustrated in three applications,image binarization,edge detection and geometric measurements. This paper also attempts to formulate a mathematical model for a fuzzy image processing approach to provide a guidance to perform fizzy image processing and also applications of fuzzy logic in the development of image processing.
