Abstract

A technique for the image recognition is major issue in the image processing and the image recognition method using pulse coupled neural network (PCNN) have been studied as one of the valid method. The most outstanding feature of the method using PCNN is that the method is valid for the rotation, magnification and shrinking of the image. Also, the good compatibility to the hardware implementation is significant feature of the PCNN. In our previous study, we proposed the GA based learning method for the PCNN parameters which enable the reliable results of image recognition. In this study, we evaluate the image recognition method using PCNN with our learning method. In the simulation results, we clarify the characteristics of recognition rate to the number of the images to be learned using our proposed learning method.
