Application of SVM Algorithm for Particle Swarm Optimization in Apple Image Segmentation

摘要

The apple image segmentation is the key technology of identification and location in the apple-picking machine vision system. On account of huge errors in the process of discriminating fruits by apple-picking robots at present and the long-time processing, the SVM theory in fingerprint image segmentation method is conducted. Combined with the global search ability of particle swarm optimization in solving combinational optimization problems, the SVM partitioning algorithm, which is based on the parameter optimization of particle swarm, is put forward. The results show that this algorithm makes the separation of apple fruits and the image background come true. It also preserves the outline of apples, then polishes the image after segmentation by the close operation in mathematical morphology, which eliminates the pore phenomenon effectively and provides convenience for the further apple-picking and apple-discriminating.
