چکیده

In this article a method for color reduction based on ant colony algorithm is presented. Generally color reduction involves two steps: choosing a proper palette and mapping colors to this palette. This article is about the first step. Using ant colony algorithm, pixel clusters are formed based on their colors and neighborhood information to make the final palette. A comparison between the results of the proposed method and some other methods is presented. There are some parameters in the proposed method which can be set based on user needs and priorities. This increases the flexibility of the method. 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

New Ant Colony Algorithm Method based on Mutation for FPGA Placement Problem

Many real world problems can be modelled as an optimization problem. Evolutionary algorithms are used to solve these problems. Ant colony algorithm is a class of evolutionary algorithms that have been inspired of some specific ants looking for food in the nature. These ants leave trail pheromone on the ground to mark good ways that can be followed by other members of the group. Ant colony optim...

Color Image Segmentation using CIELab Color Space using Ant Colony Optimization

This paper proposes an approach for the segmentation of color images using CIELab color space and Ant based clustering. Image segmentation is the process of assigning a label to every pixel in an image such that pixels with the same label share certain visual characteristics. The objective of segmentation is to change the image into meaningful form that is easier to analyze. This paper elaborat...

A New Image Retrieval Method Based on Optimal Color Matching

Color is one of the most important low-level features used in image analysis and retrieval. In this paper we introduce an algorithm for extracting compact color feature in the CIELAB color space. Our method is based on an ant colony clustering algorithm, which helps us develop a perceptually based image similarity metric. We propose a dominant color and area percentage model, which provides a v...

Color Image Enhancement Based on Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm

In the collection, transmission, decoding process, the images are likely to produce noise. Noise makes the image color distorted and the articulation dropped, and also affects the image quality. Due to different causes, there are different types of noise, and the impulse noise is most common among them which exert great influence on the image quality. This paper, according to the characteristic...

Ant Colony Optimization for Use in Content Based Image Retrieval

The aim of this chapter is to provide the reader with a Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system which incorporates AI through ant colony optimization and fuzzy logic. This method utilizes a two-stage fuzzy modified ant colony algorithm employing in parallel low-level features such as color, texture and spatial information which are extracted from the images themselves. The results prove the...
