Problems solved by technology

[0003] The existing image edge detection method is greatly affected by noise. For example, the existing logarithmic function image edge detection method cannot eliminate noise according to the logarithmic function property. Although the detection efficiency is high, the edge display effect is not good and the edge is discontinuous; The Gaussian filtering image edge detection method can eliminate noise and make the image edge smooth, but when dealing with high-order noise, the filtering strength is not easy to control, which often results in excessive smoothing of the edge

Abstract

The invention relates to an edge detection method based on the combination of region growth and an ant colony optimization algorithm, the method comprising the following steps: S1, processing an imageby adopting a region growth method to extract a region of interest; S2, adopting ant colony optimization method to generate pheromone matrix for the extracted region of interest; S3, for the extracted ROI, using the pheromone matrix generated by ant colony optimization method to calculate the threshold value and determine the image edge. The invention overcomes the technical defects of the priorart such as unclear edge, discontinuous edge and large noise influence, improves the prior ant colony algorithm which is easy to converge prematurely, and provides an edge detection method based on the combination of the region growth and the ant colony optimization algorithm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image segmentation, in particular to an edge detection method based on the combination of region growing and ant colony optimization algorithm. Background technique [0002] The purpose of image segmentation is to separate the target from the background and provide a basis for the subsequent processing of computer vision. Image segmentation is the premise of image understanding and computer vision, and it is also one of the basic technologies of image processing and analysis. Image segmentation has been used in many fields, for example, in the application of infrared technology, the segmentation of targets in infrared imaging tracking systems, the segmentation of infrared thermal images in infrared non-destructive testing; in remote sensing applications, the segmentation of targets in synthetic aperture radar images etc.; in medical applications, the segmentation of magnetic resonance images and blood ce...
