An image enhancement of s-function based on neighborhood information’
Image enhancement is an important field in image processing. In this paper, according to the characteristics of sine function, a new S-function of gray transformation is proposed, and the threshold value and neighborhood standard deviation information are considered at the same time to process the image. Through experiments, the method proposed in this paper has certain application value for image enhancement processing
Three-dimensional Path Planning for Underwater Vehicles Based on an Improved Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm
Three-dimensional path planning for underwater vehicles is an important problem that focuses on optimizing the route
with consideration of various constraints in a complex underwater environment. In this paper, an improved ant colony
optimization (IACO) algorithm based on pheromone exclusion is proposed to solve the underwater vehicle 3D path
planning problem. The IACO algorithm can balance the tasks of exploration and development in the ant search path, and
enable the ants in the search process to explore initially and develop subsequently. Then, the underwater vehicle can find
the safe path by connecting the chosen nodes of the 3D mesh while avoiding the threat area. This new approach can
overcome common disadvantages of the basic ant colony algorithm, such as falling into local extremum, poor quality,
and low accuracy. Experimental comparative results demonstrate that this proposed IACO method is more effective and
feasible in underwater vehicle 3D path planning than the basic ACO model
