Abstract

See full text

A system and method of image processing using neural networks to control image processing elements. Neural network parameters are defined by genotypes consisting of network vectors. Genotypes may be selectively mutated and cross-bred to provide a mechanism for modifying the behavior of the neural networks, or phenotypes. Genetic modeling processes are used to perform such mutation and cross-over. User feedback concerning output images, is used to select particular genotypes for further mutation and exploration. Preconditioning is employed to extract structural information from source images prior to network processing. Genetic morphing and subnet fusion are also available, to provide additional variations on image processing operations.
