Abstract

One of the hard problems in image recognition and understanding is region segmentation. A traditional segmentation method such as clustering is not fully useful for any image, because of the initial values of clusters and the evaluation functions of segmented clusters affect the results of region segmentation. To solve this problem, we introduce the genetic algorithm (GA) for clustering. The experimental result shows the satiable results of region segmentation which have been achieved by applying GA.
