Application of Genetic Algorithm to Image Segmentation

Abstract:

Image segmentation is very important in image analysis that needs to separate the related area for the general target distinguishing and analyzing an image, and it can make further use of the target, such as characteristic pick-up and measure on the basis of image processing disposal. In this dissertation, image segmentation based on genetic algorithm will be described. The selection of threshold and the process about image segmentation based on genetic algorithm are described. Finally, image segmentation based on genetic algorithm is used on a picture by Matlab, the result can be accepted. Therefore, it is significant to make analysis on image segmentation based on genetic algorithm.
