Multilevel thresholding hyperspectral image segmentation based on independent component analysis and swarm optimization methods
High dimensional problems are often encountered in studies related to hyperspectral data. One of the challenges that arise is how to find representations that are accurate so that important structures can be clearly easily. This study aims to process segmentation of hyperspectral image by using swarm optimization techniques. This experiments use Aviris Indian Pines hyperspectral image dataset that consist of 103 bands. The method used for segmentation image is particle swarm optimization (PSO), Darwinian particle swarm optimization (DPSO) and fractional order Darwinian particle swarm optimization (FODPSO). Before process segmentation image, the dimension of the hyperspectral image data set are first reduced by using independent component analysis (ICA) technique to get first independent component. The experimental show that FODPSO method is better than PSO and DPSO, in terms of the average CPU processing time and best fitness value. The PSNR and SSIM values when using FODPSO are better than the other two swarm optimization method. It can be concluded that FODPSO method is better in order to obtain better segmentation results compared to the previous method
Resolution of the stochastic strategy spatial prisoner's dilemma by means of particle swarm optimization
We study the evolution of cooperation among selfish individuals in the
stochastic strategy spatial prisoner's dilemma game. We equip players with the
particle swarm optimization technique, and find that it may lead to highly
cooperative states even if the temptations to defect are strong. The concept of
particle swarm optimization was originally introduced within a simple model of
social dynamics that can describe the formation of a swarm, i.e., analogous to
a swarm of bees searching for a food source. Essentially, particle swarm
optimization foresees changes in the velocity profile of each player, such that
the best locations are targeted and eventually occupied. In our case, each
player keeps track of the highest payoff attained within a local topological
neighborhood and its individual highest payoff. Thus, players make use of their
own memory that keeps score of the most profitable strategy in previous
actions, as well as use of the knowledge gained by the swarm as a whole, to
find the best available strategy for themselves and the society. Following
extensive simulations of this setup, we find a significant increase in the
level of cooperation for a wide range of parameters, and also a full resolution
of the prisoner's dilemma. We also demonstrate extreme efficiency of the
optimization algorithm when dealing with environments that strongly favor the
proliferation of defection, which in turn suggests that swarming could be an
important phenomenon by means of which cooperation can be sustained even under
highly unfavorable conditions. We thus present an alternative way of
understanding the evolution of cooperative behavior and its ubiquitous presence
in nature, and we hope that this study will be inspirational for future efforts
aimed in this direction.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures; accepted for publication in PLoS ON
Multilevel Image Segmentation Based on Fractional-Order Darwinian Particle Swarm Optimization
Hyperspectral remote sensing images contain hundreds of data channels. Due to the high dimensionality of the hyperspectral data, it is difficult to design accurate and efficient image segmentation algorithms for such imagery. In this paper, a new multilevel thresholding method is introduced for the segmentation of hyperspectral and multispectral images. The new method is based on fractional-order Darwinian particle swarm optimization (FODPSO) which exploits the many swarms of test solutions that may exist at any time. In addition, the concept of fractional derivative is used to control the convergence rate of particles. In this paper, the so-called Otsu problem is solved for each channel of the multispectral and hyperspectral data. Therefore, the problem of n-level thresholding is reduced to an optimization problem in order to search for the thresholds that maximize the between-class variance. Experimental results are favorable for the FODPSO when compared to other bioinspired methods for multilevel segmentation of multispectral and hyperspectral images. The FODPSO presents a statistically significant improvement in terms of both CPU time and fitness value, i.e., the approach is able to find the optimal set of thresholds with a larger between-class variance in less computational time than the other approaches. In addition, a new classification approach based on support vector machine (SVM) and FODPSO is introduced in this paper. Results confirm that the new segmentation method is able to improve upon results obtained with the standard SVM in terms of classification accuracies.Sponsored by: IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing SocietyRitrýnt tímaritPeer reviewedPre prin
