چکیده

One of the fundamental weaknesses of current computer vision systems used in outdoor applications is their inability to adapt the segmentation process as real-world changes occur in the image. We present a closed loop image segmentation system that incorporates a genetic algorithm to adapt the segmentation process to changes in image characteristics caused by variable environmental conditions. The genetic algorithm efficiently searches the hyperspace of segmentation parameter combinations to determine the parameter set which maximizes the segmentation quality criteria. We present a summary of the experimental results that demonstrates the ability to perform adaptive image segmentation and to learn from experience using a collection of outdoor color imagery.

Robust Potato Color Image Segmentation using Adaptive Fuzzy Inference System

Potato image segmentation is an important part of image-based potato defect detection. This paper presents a robust potato color image segmentation through a combination of a fuzzy rule based system, an image thresholding based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization and morphological operators. The proposed potato color image segmentation is robust against variation of background, distance and ...

Adaptive Image Segmentation Using a Genetic Algorithm - Systems, Man and Cybernetics, IEEE Transactions on

Image segmentation is an old and difficult problem. One of the fundamental weaknesses of current computer vision systems to be used in practical applications is their inability to adapt the segmentation process as real-world changes occur in the image. We present the first closed loop image segmentation system which incorporates a genetic algorithm to adapt the segmentation process to changes i...

Adaptive fuzzy pole placement for stabilization of non-linear systems

A new approach for pole placement of nonlinear systems using state feedback and fuzzy system is proposed. We use a new online fuzzy training method to identify and to obtain a fuzzy model for the unknown nonlinear system using only the system input and output. Then, we linearized this identified model at each sampling time to have an approximate linear time varying system. In order to stabilize...

Salt and Pepper Noise Removal using Pixon-based Segmentation and Adaptive Median Filter

Removing salt and pepper noise is an active research area in image processing. In this paper, a two-phase method is proposed for removing salt and pepper noise while preserving edges and fine details. In the first phase, noise candidate pixels are detected which are likely to be contaminated by noise. In the second phase, only noise candidate pixels are restored using adaptive median filter. In...

Object Tracking and Segmentation in a Closed Loop

We introduce a new method for integrated tracking and segmentation of a single non-rigid object in an monocular video, captured by a possibly moving camera. A closed-loop interaction between EM-like color-histogram-based tracking and Random Walker-based image segmentation is proposed, which results in reduced tracking drifts and in fine object segmentation. More specifically, pixel-wise spatial...
