Abstract
ABSTRACT Traditional image segment algorithms have some demerits: edge blur, discontinuous edge is susceptible to peripheral irrelevant information, Poor noise resistance. Therefore, we propose an improved krill group-based region growing algorithm for image segmentation in this paper. First, texture feature of the image is extracted by using Gabor filter. Then, we modify the krill group by the way that the population particle dynamics is divided into two categories: worse fitness value of particle and better fitness value of particle. The inertial weight of worse fitness value of particle is reset to zero, so as to eliminate the adverse effect of inertial weight on the current iteration of the algorithm. The inertial weight of better fitness value particle remains unchanged. The step size scaling factor in the algorithm is treated with non-linear declination to further improve the global exploring ability of the algorithm. Finally, the improved kill group optimisation is used to search for the optimal solution, and the segmentation results are finally obtained. The experimental results show that the proposed image segmentation model can not only improve the segmentation accuracy and reduce the number of iterations but also suppress the background. The contour positioning of the object area is effective.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Image and Data Fusion provides a single source of information for all aspects of image and data fusion methodologies, developments, techniques and applications. Image and data fusion techniques are important for combining the many sources of satellite, airborne and ground based imaging systems, and integrating these with other related data sets for enhanced information extraction and decision making. Image and data fusion aims at the integration of multi-sensor, multi-temporal, multi-resolution and multi-platform image data, together with geospatial data, GIS, in-situ, and other statistical data sets for improved information extraction, as well as to increase the reliability of the information. This leads to more accurate information that provides for robust operational performance, i.e. increased confidence, reduced ambiguity and improved classification enabling evidence based management. The journal welcomes original research papers, review papers, shorter letters, technical articles, book reviews and conference reports in all areas of image and data fusion including, but not limited to, the following aspects and topics: • Automatic registration/geometric aspects of fusing images with different spatial, spectral, temporal resolutions; phase information; or acquired in different modes • Pixel, feature and decision level fusion algorithms and methodologies • Data Assimilation: fusing data with models • Multi-source classification and information extraction • Integration of satellite, airborne and terrestrial sensor systems • Fusing temporal data sets for change detection studies (e.g. for Land Cover/Land Use Change studies) • Image and data mining from multi-platform, multi-source, multi-scale, multi-temporal data sets (e.g. geometric information, topological information, statistical information, etc.).
