Generation of feature detectors for texture discrimination by genetic search
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents a genetic algorithm based methodology for learning a set offeature detectors for texture discrimination. This methodology is implemented inJo a vision system that learns to classify noisy examples of different texture classes by evolving populations of simple and texture-specific local spatial feature detectors.

Feature Selection by a Genetic Algorithm. Application to Seed Discrimination by Artificial Vision
Genetic algorithms (GAs) are efficient search methods based on the paradigm of natural selection and population genetics. A simple GA was applied for selecting the optimal feature subset among an initial feature set of larger size. The performances were tested on a practical pattern recognition problem, which consisted on the discrimination between four seed species (two cultivated and two adve...

Introduction: Early detection and treatment of thyroid nodules increase the cure rate and provide optimal treatment. Ultrasound is the chosen imaging technique for assessment of thyroid nodules. Confirmation of the diagnosis usually demands repeated fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). So, current management, has morbidity and non zero mortality. The goal of the present study ...

Background & Aims: Early detection and reliable differentiation of benign and malignant liver tumors could lead to improved cure rate and costs. Ultrasound image (US) is a convenient medical imaging method for interpreting liver tumors. Visual inspection of ultrasound images sometimes is combined with error and needs biopsy to confirm whether a tumor would be benign or malignant. The aim of thi...

Background: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) occurs based on the continuous deficit in a person’s verbal skills, visual, auditory, touch, and social behavior. Over the last two decades, one of the most important approaches in studying brain functions in autistic persons is using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). Objectives: It is common to use all brain regions in functional extracti...
