Many real-world and man-made objects are line symmetry. To detection the line-symmetry objects from an image, in this paper, a new cluster validity measure which adopts a non-metric distance measure based on the idea of "line symmetry" is presented. The thresholding technique is first applied to extract the objects from the original image; and the object pixels are transferred to be the data patterns. Then the fuzzy clustering algorithm is applied to label the object pixels; and the proposed validity measure is used in determining the number of objects. Simulation results are used to illustrate the performance of the proposed measure.
