Li Ming Guan, Qian Yang, Jian Lin, Yi Wu · Applied Mechanics and Materials · 2012
A two-dimensional image matching method based on the improved Hausdorff distance and global harmony search optimization is presented in this paper. First, edges are extracted form the original images by the Canny edge detector. Then, a fitness function based on the improved Hausdorff distance is constructed. Finally the global harmony search optimization is adopted to optimize the fitness function. Experiments show that the proposed method is able to locate the object of interest globally and efficiently.
