Abstract
This paper addresses the possibility of modelling pixel spacial relationship of curves in images using the movement of second order dynamic systems. A multi-agent system is then considered to control the ‘movement’ of pixels in a single image to detect parallel curves. The music scripts are used as example to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. The experiment results show that it is reliable to model the pixel spatial chain (pixels positioned adjacently or nearly connected in sequence) by the dynamics of a second order system, and the proposed multi-agent method has potential to detect parallel curves in images.
