Kapur's entropy for multilevel thresholding image segmentation based on moth-flame optimization

Multilevel thresholding is a reliable and efficacious method for image segmentation that has recently received widespread recognition. However, the computational complexity of the multilevel thresholding method increases as the threshold level increases, which causes the low segmentation accuracy of...

Kapur's entropy for multilevel thresholding image segmentation based on moth-flame optimization
description Multilevel thresholding is a reliable and efficacious method for image segmentation that has recently received widespread recognition. However, the computational complexity of the multilevel thresholding method increases as the threshold level increases, which causes the low segmentation accuracy of this method. To overcome this shortcoming, this paper presents a moth-flame optimization (MFO) established on Kapur's entropy to clarify the multilevel thresholding image segmentation. The MFO adjusts exploration and exploitation to achieve the best fitness value. To validate the overall performance, MFO is compared with other algorithms to realize the global optimal solution to maximize the target value of Kapur's entropy. Some critical evaluation indicators are used to determine the segmentation effect and optimization performance of each algorithm. The experimental results indicate that MFO has a faster convergence speed, higher calculation accuracy, better segmentation effect and better stability.
