Image thresholding based on the EM algorithm and the generalized Gaussian distribution

TL;DR: A novel parametric and global image histogram thresholding method based on the estimation of the statistical parameters of ''object'' and ''background'' classes by the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, under the assumption that these two classes follow a generalized Gaussian (GG) distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Finding optimal control strategies for invasive species: a density‐structured model for Spartina alterniflora

TL;DR: Given the uncertainty in future budgets allocated for control of invasive Spartina, the basic question of whether it is more efficient to prioritize the removal of outliers or core populations of an invasive grass, Spartina alterniflora, is addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secure multidimensional range queries over outsourced data

TL;DR: A tunable data bucketization algorithm is provided that allows the data owner to control the trade-off between disclosure risk and cost and is derived from cost and disclosure-risk metrics that estimate client’s computational overhead and disclosure risk respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

On-road vehicle detection using evolutionary Gabor filter optimization

TL;DR: The objective is to build a set of filters that are capable of responding stronger to features present in vehicles than to nonvehicles, therefore improving class discrimination and unifies filter design with filter selection by integrating genetic algorithms (GAs) with an incremental clustering approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Image segmentation by three-level thresholding based on maximum fuzzy entropy and genetic algorithm

TL;DR: A three-level thresholding method for image segmentation is presented, based on probability partition, fuzzy partition and entropy theory, and a new fuzzy entropy has been defined through probability analysis.

Genetic Algorithms + Data Structures = Evolution Programs

TL;DR: GAs and Evolution Programs for Various Discrete Problems, a Hierarchy of Evolution Programs and Heuristics, and Conclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Introduction to Genetic Algorithms.

TL;DR: An Introduction to Genetic Algorithms as discussed by the authors is one of the rare examples of a book in which every single page is worth reading, and the author, Melanie Mitchell, manages to describe in depth many fascinating examples as well as important theoretical issues.
Book

Handbook of Genetic Algorithms

TL;DR: This book sets out to explain what genetic algorithms are and how they can be used to solve real-world problems, and introduces the fundamental genetic algorithm (GA), and shows how the basic technique may be applied to a very simple numerical optimisation problem.
