Application of fuzzy quantifiers in image processing: a case study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fuzzy quantifiers, i.e. operators intended to provide a numerical interpretation of natural language (NL) quantifiers like ‘almost all’, are valuable tools for image processing, in particular to express accumulative (second order) properties of fuzzy image regions. However, approaches to fuzzy quantification will unfold their full potential only if the proposed operators capture the meaning of NL quantifiers. We present an exemplary evaluation of one of the most prominent approaches to fuzzy quantification, Yager’s OWA approach [7], with respect to its suitability to model NL quantification over fuzzy image regions.

COMBINING FUZZY QUANTIFIERS AND NEAT OPERATORS FOR SOFT COMPUTING
This paper will introduce a new method to obtain the order weightsof the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator. We will first show therelation between fuzzy quantifiers and neat OWA operators and then offer anew combination of them. Fuzzy quantifiers are applied for soft computingin modeling the optimism degree of the decision maker. In using neat operators,the ordering of the inputs is not...
متن کاملIntegrating Fuzzy Inference System, Image Processing and Quality Control to Detect Defects and Classify Quality Level of Copper Rods
Human-based quality control reduces the accuracy of this process. Also, the speed of decision making in some industries is very important. For removing these limitations in human-based quality control, in this paper, the design of an expert system for automatic and intelligent quality control is investigated. In fact, using an intelligent system, the accuracy in quality control is increased. It...
متن کاملCluster-Based Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Markov Random Field
Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...
متن کاملStochastic Fuzzy Discrimination Information Measure Cost Function in Image Processing
A new cost function based on stochastic fuzzy discrimination information measure is introduced in this paper. Focusing on their significant parts, this cost function is used to find the optimal value of threshold for denoising image. It is, in fact, an extension of fuzzy entropy cost function by the present author. Multivariable normal distribution is used for creating focus on significant part...
متن کاملPothole Detection by Soft Computing
Subject- Potholes on roads are regarded as serious problems in the transportation domain and ignoring them leads to the increase of accidents, traffic, vehicle fuel consumption and waste of time and energy. As a result, pothole detection has attracted researchers’ attention and different methods have been presented for it up to now. Background- The major part of previous research is based on i...
