Abstract

Abstract: Object detection and localization attract the researchers to address the challenges associated with the computer vision. The literature presents numerous unsupervised methods to detect and localize the objects, but with inaccuracies and inconsistencies. The problem is tackled through proposing a novel model based on the optimization algorithm. The object in the image is detected using the Sparse Fuzzy C-Means (Sparse FCM) that is the enhanced Fuzzy C-Means algorithm used to manage the high-dimensional data. The detected objects are subjected to the object localization, which is performed using the proposed Cat Crow Optimization (CCO)-based Deep Convolutional Neural Network. The proposed CCO is the integration of Cat Swarm Optimization Algorithm and Crow Search Algorithm and inherits the advantages of both the optimization algorithms. The experimentation of the proposed method is performed using images obtained from the Visual Object Classes Challenge 2012 dataset. The analysis revealed that the proposed method acquired an average accuracy, precision, and recall of 0.8278, 0.8549, and 0.7911, respectively.
