Abstract :
In this paper, an image processing algorithm using periodic pattern formation in cellular neural networks is proposed. Applying this algorithm to a certain image, area having spatial uniformity is removed from the original image and only parts without spatial uniformity remain. Simulation results show that when this algorithm is applied to an image containing characters (texts), only characters are extracted.
