  • Abstract
    The life of a kind of whale is very interesting and it is in some cases close to human life. One of the interesting and fascinating things about whales is the way they hunt. In this article, an algorithm is presented with the inspiration of the way these whales hunt. This algorithm has a wide range of applications, In order to show the capabilities of this algorithm, one of the image processing techniques is optimized and implemented using the algorithm mentioned above. We got excellent results in the execution speed and image quality. The algorithm is implemented on Spartan 3s400 FPGA.
