An evolutionary autonomous agents approach to image feature extraction

Jiming Liu, Y.Y. Tang, Y.C. Cao
1997 IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation  
This paper presents a new approach to image feature extraction which utilizes evolutionary autonomous agents.  ...  Here the fitness of a parent agent is defined according to the steps that the agent takes to locate an image feature pixel.  ...  In addition, special thanks should be given to Dr. H. Zhou for his involvement in some of the preliminary experiments and to H. Qin for his help in producing two of the graphical illustrations.  ...
