description

This paper deals with a memetic algorithm for the reconstruction of binary images, by using their projections along four directions. The algorithm generates by network flows a set of initial images according to two of the input projections and lets them evolve toward a solution that can be optimal or close to the optimum. Switch and compactness operators improve the quality of the reconstructed images which belong to a given generation, while the selection of the best image addresses the evolution to an optimal output.
