    Multi-objective Genetic Algorithm for efficient point matching in multi-sensor satellite image
    (2012) Senthilnath, J.; Omkar, S.N.; Mani, V.; Kalro, N.P.; Diwakar, P.G.
    This paper investigates a new approach for point matching in multi-sensor satellite images. The feature points are matched using multi-objective optimization (angle criterion and distance condition) based on Genetic Algorithm (GA). This optimization process is more efficient as it considers both the angle criterion and distance condition to incorporate multi-objective switching in the fitness function. This optimization process helps in matching three corresponding corner points detected in the reference and sensed image and thereby using the affine transformation, the sensed image is aligned with the reference image. From the results obtained, the performance of the image registration is evaluated and it is concluded that the proposed approach is efficient. © 2012 IEEE.

    Spectral-spatial MODIS image analysis using swarm intelligence algorithms and region based segmentation for flood assessment
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2013) Senthilnath, J.; Vikram Shenoy, H.; Omkar, S.N.; Mani, V.
    This paper discusses an approach for river mapping and flood evaluation based on multi-temporal time-series analysis of satellite images utilizing pixel spectral information for image clustering and region based segmentation for extracting water covered regions. MODIS satellite images are analyzed at two stages: before flood and during flood. Multi-temporal MODIS images are processed in two steps. In the first step, clustering algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are used to distinguish the water regions from the non-water based on spectral information. These algorithms are chosen since they are quite efficient in solving multi-modal optimization problems. These classified images are then segmented using spatial features of the water region to extract the river. From the results obtained, we evaluate the performance of the methods and conclude that incorporating region based image segmentation along with clustering algorithms provides accurate and reliable approach for the extraction of water covered region. © 2013 Springer.

    Clustering using levy flight cuckoo search
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2013) Senthilnath, J.; Das, V.; Omkar, S.N.; Mani, V.
    In this paper, a comparative study is carried using three nature-inspired algorithms namely Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Cuckoo Search (CS) on clustering problem. Cuckoo search is used with levy flight. The heavy-tail property of levy flight is exploited here. These algorithms are used on three standard benchmark datasets and one real-time multi-spectral satellite dataset. The results are tabulated and analysed using various techniques. Finally we conclude that under the given set of parameters, cuckoo search works efficiently for majority of the dataset and levy flight plays an important role. © 2013 Springer.

    Location management in mobile computing using swarm intelligence techniques
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2014) Goel, N.; Senthilnath, J.; Omkar, S.N.; Mani, V.
    Location management is an important and complex issue in mobile computing. Location management problem can be solved by partitioning the network into location areas such that the total cost, i.e., sum of handoff (update) cost and paging cost is minimum. Finding the optimal number of location areas and the corresponding configuration of the partitioned network is NP-complete problem. In this paper, we present two swarm intelligence algorithms namely genetic algorithm (GA) and artificial bee colony (ABC) to obtain minimum cost in the location management problem. We compare the performance of the swarm intelligence algorithms and the results show that ABC give better optimal solution to locate the optimal solution. © Springer India 2014.

    A new SIFT matching criteria in a genetic algorithm framework for registering multisensory satellite imagery
    (Association for Computing Machinery acmhelp@acm.org, 2014) Senthilnath, J.; Prasad, R.
    Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images are efficient and reliable source of information in extraction of damaged regions in case of floods. In assessment of damage accurately due to floods, image registration of optical (before-flood) and SAR images (after-flood) has to be carried out efficiently. In this paper, we discuss a robust multi-sensor image registration algorithm using scale invariant feature points for keypoint extraction. For matching the keypoints, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is developed with angle, distance and vicinity criterion as the fitness functions. This optimization process helps in matching the scale invariant feature points. From the obtained results, the performance of the image registration is evaluated and it is concluded that the proposed approach is efficient. © 2014 ACM.

    Multi-sensor satellite remote sensing images for flood assessment using swarm intelligence
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Senthilnath, J.; Omkar, S.N.; Mani, V.; Prasad, R.; Rajendra, R.; Shreyas, P.B.
    This paper investigates a new approach for flood evaluation based on multi-sensor satellite images utilizing swarm intelligence techniques. The swarm intelligence techniques used are Genetic Algorithm (GA) for image registration and Niche Particle Swarm Optimization (NPSO) for image clustering. Analysis of satellite images are applied in two stages: Linear Imaging Self Scanning Sensor (LISS-III) image acquired before-flood and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image acquired during-flood. In the first step, SAR image is aligned with LISS-III image using GA. The aligned SAR image (during-flood) is used to extract flooded and non-flooded regions where as LISS-III image (before-flood) is used to classify various land cover regions. For this image clustering is carried out where cluster centers are generated using the cluster splitting technique such as NPSO. The data points are grouped into their respective classes using the merging method. Further, the resultant images are overlaid to analyze the extent of the flood in individual land classes. The performance comparisons of these swarm intelligence techniques with conventional methods are presented. © 2015 IEEE.
