function [bw,level]=fcmthresh(IM,sw)
%FCMTHRESH Thresholding by 3-class fuzzy c-means clustering
% [bw,level]=fcmthresh(IM,sw) outputs the binary image bw and threshold level of
% image IM using a 3-class fuzzy c-means clustering. It often works better
% than Otsu's methold which outputs larger or smaller threshold on
% fluorescence images.
% sw is 0 or 1, a switch of cut-off position.
% sw=0, cut between the small and middle class
% sw=1, cut between the middle and large class
