Abstract

Nowadays, swarm intelligence shows a high accuracy while solving difficult problems, including image processing problem. Image Edge detection is a complex optimization problem due to the high-resolution images involving large matrix of pixels. The current work describes several sensitive to the environment models involving swarm intelligence. The agents’ sensitivity is used in order to guide the swarm to obtain the best solution. Both theoretical general guidance and a practical example for a particular swarm are included. The quality of results is measured using several known measures.
