Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Efficient Ant Algorithm for Swarm-Based Image ClusteringSalima Ouadfel, Mohamed BatoucheA collective approach to resolve the segmentation problem was proposed. AntClust is a new ant-based algorithm that uses the self-organizing and autonomous brood sorting behavior observed in real ants. Ants and pixels are scatted on a discrete array of cells represented the ants’ environment. Using simple local rules and without any central control, ants form homogeneous clusters by moving pixels … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSHADOW DETECTION USING COLOR AND EDGE INFORMATIONMaryam Golchin, Fatimah Khalid, Lili Nurliana Abdullah, Seyed Hashem DavarpanahShadows appear in many scenes. Human can easily distinguish shadows from objects, but it is one of the challenges for shadow detection intelligent automated systems. Accurate shadow detection can be difficult due to the illumination variations of the background and similarity between appearance of the objects and the background. Color and edge information are two popular features that have been … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 5 Oct 2013 · 7,961 accessesView PDFCite
