Comparative Study of Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Image Classification

Abstract

There are various applications of image processing in the field of engineering, agriculture, graphic design, commerce, historical research and architecture. This paper studies and compares most of the research works done in the field of image processing and machine learning for the purpose of image classification based on the features extracted from the image through different feature extraction techniques. The machine learning techniques studied in this paper are Convolution Neural Network (CNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Fuzzy logic. The paper studies and compares these methods for their implementation in classification of digital images. Color based segmentation models are used to segment the specific features from image and categories them into different classes. First image preprocessing is done on the image to reduce the noise from the image. Then image segmentation and edge detection techniques are used to identify the objects in the image and extract the features through which the image can be labeled with a specific class.
