Abstract

There is such massive of redundancy remained in recent development of GUI about design, implementation, and evaluation that it is now urgent for researchers to make these tasks done automatically. Among the different stages of automatic GUI developing, the primary work is to get information of edges in GUI images in a suitable manner. It is crucial to obtain accurate information about the arrangement of the GUI component, which will be the key basis of automatic development of GUI. In this paper, optimizations have been proposed for GUI image after several experiments and evaluations. And it turns out that the optimizations work well.
