Neuware -This book presents the use of efficientEvolutionary Computation (EC) algorithms for solving diverse real-world imageprocessing and pattern recognition problems. It provides an overview of thedifferent aspects of evolutionary methods in order to enable the reader inreaching a global understanding of the field and, in conducting studies onspecific evolutionary techniques that are related to applications in imageprocessing and pattern recognition. It explains the basic ideas of the proposedapplications in a way that can also be understood by readers outside of thefield. Image processing and pattern recognition practitioners who are notevolutionary computation researchers will appreciate the discussed techniquesbeyond simple theoretical tools since they have been adapted to solvesignificant problems that commonly arise on such areas. On the other handmembers of the evolutionary computation community can learn the way in whichimage processing and pattern recognition problems can be translated into anoptimization task. The book has been structured so that each chapter can beread independently from the others. It can serve as reference book for studentsand researchers with basic knowledge in image processing and EC methods.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 292 pp. Englisch.

Synopsis

This book presents the use of efficient Evolutionary Computation (EC) algorithms for solving diverse real-world image processing and pattern recognition problems. It provides an overview of the different aspects of evolutionary methods in order to enable the reader in reaching a global understanding of the field and, in conducting studies on specific evolutionary techniques that are related to applications in image processing and pattern recognition. It explains the basic ideas of the proposed applications in a way that can also be understood by readers outside of the field. Image processing and pattern recognition practitioners who are not evolutionary computation researchers will appreciate the discussed techniques beyond simple theoretical tools since they have been adapted to solve significant problems that commonly arise on such areas. On the other hand, members of the evolutionary computation community can learn the way in which image processing and pattern recognition problems can be translated into an optimization task. The book has been structured so that each chapter can be read independently from the others. It can serve as reference book for students and researchers with basic knowledge in image processing and EC methods.
