A Novel Artistic Image Generation Technique: Making Relief Effects Through Evolution

摘要

The fascinating effect of applying evolutionary algorithms (Eas) to real-world applications consists in its less requirement of knowledge of the applied domain. Many efforts on this idea lead to a new term Nature Inspired Computation, which aims at solving real-world problems with techniques included the nature. Adaptive lossless image compression is one of the most important applications in the field of evolvable hardware(EHW) according to this idea. However, except the adaptive lossless image compression, few extended applications in the field of image processing was reported in the past years. This paper presents a novel evolutionary technique for making relief effects according to the principle of the nature. The proposed method is vary simple and efficient which needs few knowledge about the image precessing, except the common sense that almost all people have. Experimental results show that the proposed method is efficient, and can make quite different effects comparing with conventional method.
