Simplified firefly algorithm for 2D image key-points search

Abstract

Abstract-In order to identify an object, human eyes firstly search the field of view for points or areas which have particular properties. These properties are used to recognise an image or an object. Then this process could be taken as a model to develop computer algorithms for images identification. This paper proposes the idea of applying the simplified firefly algorithm to search for key-areas in 2D images. For a set of input test images the proposed version of firefly algorithm has been examined. Research results are presented and discussed to show the efficiency of this evolutionary computation method.

Can We Process 2D Images Using Artificial Bee Colony?

“…Firefly Algorithm was used in image compression [11], gray-scale image watermarking [14] and Key-Point classification [27], [17]. Cuckoo Search Algorithm has efficient application in intelligent video target racking [22], satellite image segmentation [2] and recognition [29].…”

Toward 2D Image Classifier Based on Firefly Algorithm with Simplified Sobel Filter

“…This paper describes an application of CI methods combined with a simplified sobel filter, as a dedicated solution that creates a 2D input image recognition system. The Firefly Algorithm (FA), originally proposed in [13], was efficiently applied for various purposes: to solve the travelling salesman problem [14], image compression [15], threshold selection [16], benchmark tests [17] and feature extraction [18], [19], [20], [21]. Therefore, we present a novel approach to feature extraction for future object classification that is based on the application of FA with a simplified sobel filter.…”

Automatic Classification of Fruit Defects based on Co-Occurrence Matrix and Neural Networks

“…Several methods based on more specific image acquisition are reported in [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13]. Wen and Tao developed a nearinfrared vision system for automatic apple defect inspection, see [14], While some recent advances in feature extraction for images and biometrics are reported in [15], [16], [17], [18], [19]. Zion et al introduced a computerised method to detect the bruises of Jonathan, Golden Delicious, and Hermon apples from magnetic resonance images by threshold technique.…”
