Abstract
A new dynamic Multilevel Thresholding method (DMTBPSO), based on Binary Particle Swarm Optimization and Otsu´s method, is proposed. This approach can automatically determine the appropriate number of thresholds as well as the adequate threshold values with saving a significant amount of computing time which is independent from the number of thresholds. The proposed method is validated by illustrative examples, comparison with the Otsu´s method shows its efficiency.
