How big are your images? Are your images RGB (truecolor) or grayscale?

Use the code profiling tool or insert tics and tocs into the code to find out what's taking so long. It's probably k_means. You might be able to get very close to the same results in 1/16 the sime if you just subsample your image by a factor of 4 in both directions. Please state how long is "a long time". Is it several hours, minutes, or seconds? I've seen some people say 0.05 seconds is too long and others say days is too long and would be happy to get it down to a few hours.

it nearly takes 20 minutes ,if i use k means i get error,empty clusters ,thats y i have used k_means.
You can eliminate the error via the 'EmptyAction' parameter with kmeans; I'm not familiar with your alternative k_means function but perhaps reverting to
kmeans(... , 'EmptyAction', 'drop')
might help?
