—Inspired by the contours in topography, this paper proposes a contour method for the population-based stochastic algorithms to solve the problems with continuous variables. Rely...
Using a saliency measure based on the global property of contour closure, we have developed a method that reliably segments out salient contours bounding unknown objects from real...

This paper presents a novel discrete population based stochastic optimization algorithm inspired from weed colonization. Its performance in a discrete benchmark, timecost trade-off...
Abstract. Several image processing algorithms imitate the lateral interaction of neurons in the visual striate cortex V1 to account for the correlations along contours and lines. H...
