Numerous computer-aided systems for detecting breast cancer from mammograms have been introduced. In this paper, we present a new way for combining Cellular Automata with Fuzzy Logic, resulting in a so-called Fuzzy Cellular Automaton. The results obtained by testing our proposed approach on the mini-MIAS dataset are close to the ground truth, which is highly encouraging. The choice of using fuzzy logic provides a more flexible technique for categorizing the pixels of interest.
