Abstract
Visual pattern recognition and classification is a challenging com- puter vision problem. Genetic programming has been applied to- wards automatic visual pattern recognition. An important factor in evolving effective classifiers is the suitability of the GP lan- guage for defining expressions for feature extraction and classifi- cation. This research presents a comparative study of a variety of GP languages suitable for classification. Four different languages are examined, which use different selections of image processing operators. One of the languages does block classification, which means that an entire region of pixels is classified simultaneously. The other languages are pixel classifiers, which determine classifi- cation for a single pixel. Pixel classifiers are more common in the GP-vision literature. We tested the languages on different instances of Brodatz textures, as well as aerial and camera images. Our re- sults show that the most effective languages are pixel-based ones with spatial operators. However, as is to be expected, the nature of the image will naturally determine the effectiveness of the language used.
