This paper is focusing on extracting chain codes of a thinned binary image using two soft computing approaches, i.e. Differential Evolution (DE) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The problem is to find a continuous route which covers all of the nodes of the image. The motivation is that finding...
