Description/Abstract
Shape matching techniques are important in machine intelligence, especially in applications such as robotics. Currently, there are three major approaches to shape recognition: statistical, syntactic and neural approaches. This paper presents a fourth approach: evolutionary algorithms. A steady state memetic algorithm is shown to be successful in matching shapes even when they are partially obscured, and even in the presence of noise in the input image.
