Ant Algorithms for Adaptive Edge Detection

چکیده
Edge detection is a pre-processing step in applications of computer and robot vision. It transforms the input image to a binary image that indicates either the presence or the absence of an edge. Therefore, the edge detectors represent a special group of search algorithms with the objective of finding the pixels belonging to true edges. The search is performed following certain criteria, as the edge pixels are found in regions of an image where the distinct intensity changes or discontinuities occur (e.g. in color, gray-intensity level, texture, etc.).

متن کاملNoisy images edge detection: Ant colony optimization algorithm
The edges of an image define the image boundary. When the image is noisy, it does not become easy to identify the edges. Therefore, a method requests to be developed that can identify edges clearly in a noisy image. Many methods have been proposed earlier using filters, transforms and wavelets with Ant colony optimization (ACO) that detect edges. We here used ACO for edge detection of noisy ima...

متن کاملAdaptive Edge Detection Using Adjusted Ant Colony Optimization
Edges contain important information in image and edge detection can be considered a low level process in image processing. Among different methods developed for this purpose traditional methods are simple and rather efficient. In Swarm Intelligent methods developed in last decade, ACO is more capable in this process. This paper uses traditional edge detection operators such as Sobel and Canny a...
