An Image Edge Detection Method Based on Improved Ant Colony Algorithm

Abstract:

This paper raises an improved ant colony algorithm, for the detection of weak edge of complex background image, considering edge positioning accuracy, edge pixels, edge continuity and interference edges. This algorithm is improved in two aspects: first, we improved the expression of pheromone; second, we improved the calculation of Heuristic information. Compared with traditional Canny detector indicates, the improved method is proved to be accurate in edge detection, good continuity and less interference by experiment.
