Abstract

The swarm intelligence technique is applied in image processing for feature extraction. The perceptual graph is proposed to represent the relationship between adjacent image points. The ant colony system is applied to build the perceptual graph. In the experiments, edge extraction and image segmentation are implemented with the proposed method, which show that the artificial ant swarm can effectively perform feature extraction in digital images.
