Ji‐Xiang Du, De-Shuang Huang, Jun Zhang, Xiaofeng Wang · 2005
In this paper an efficient shape matching approach based on fuzzy discrete particle swarm optimization (FDPSO) is proposed. Based on fuzzy theory and PSO method, we applied this optimization method to a special combinatorial optimization problem: shape matching and recognition. Firstly, an original shape is approximated to a polygone and a shape representation of invariant attributes sequence is used. Then fuzzy matrices were adopted to represent the position and velocity of the particles in PSO. Finally, the superiority of our proposed method over traditional approaches to shape matching is demonstrated by experiments. The experimental results showed that our proposed method can achieve good results due to its robustness.
