cellular automata, image processing.Abstract
Cellular Automata have been considered for a series of applications among which several image processing tasks. The goal of this paper is to investigate such existing methods, supporting the broader goal of identifying Cellular Automata rules able to automatically segment images. With the same broader goal in mind as future work, a detailed description of evaluation metrics used for image segmentation is also given in this paper.
