Abstract

This paper presents the optimization of the antecedent parameters for a system of edge detection based on Sobel technique combined with interval type-2 fuzzy logic. For the optimization of the fuzzy inference system, the cuckoo search (CS) algorithm is applied, the idea is to find the design parameters of an IT2-FLS and achieve better results in applications of edge detection for digital images.
