The image auto-focusing method based on artificial neural networks

摘要

According to the image feature extraction capacity based on wavelet transformation and the nonlinear, self-adaptive and pattern recognition capacity based on artificial neural networks, the image auto-focusing method based on artificial neural networks is put forward. The wavelet components' statistics obtained by the wavelet transform are taken as the inputs of the 5 layer BP neural network model. The model identifies the image definition applying the steepest descent method of the additional momentum in a variable step to adjust the network weights. The model is first trained by 75 images from a training set, and then is tested by 102 images from a testing set. The results show that it is a very effective identification method which can obtain a higher recognition rate.
