Evolving Edge Detectors with Genetic Programming
The MIT Press eBooks · 1996
Edge detection is the process of detecting discontinuities in signals and images. We apply genetic programming techniques to the production of high-performance edge detectors for 1-D signals and image profiles. The method, which it is intended to extend to the development of practical edge detectors for use in image processing and machine vision, uses theoretical performance measures as criteria for the experimental design.
