Multilevel Image Segmentation Using Modified Particle Swarm Optimization
Abstract
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a well-known swarm optimization technique. PSO is very efficient to optimize the image segmentation problem. PSO algorithm have some drawbacks as the possible solutions may follow the global best solution at one stage. As a result, the probable solutions may bound within that locally optimized solutions. The proposed chapter tries to get over the drawback of the PSO algorithm and proposes a Modified Particle Swarm Optimization (MfPSO) algorithm to segment the multilevel images. The proposed method is compared with the original PSO algorithm and the renowned k-means algorithm. Comparison of the above mentioned existing methods with the proposed method are applied on three real life multilevel gray scale images. For this purpose, three standard objective functions are applied to evaluate the quality of the segmented images. The comparison shows that the proposed MfPSO algorithm is done better than the PSO algorithm and the k-means algorithm to segment the real life multilevel gray scale images.
