Abstract :
We propose an algorithm to solve image recognition problems by using stickiness of DNA molecules, and show an applicability of DNA computing in engineering research field. In normal silicon-based computer, this algorithm is not being selected because huge and parallel operations are needed. There has been a lot of processing method that several features of a model are extracted for recognizing images of it. In this paper, the features of a model for searching object construct a corresponded network. Nodes and branches in this network are encoded to DNA sequences considering complementarity of DNA, and also features of other models in search image are also encoded to them. These DNA molecules are put into hypothetical test tubes, and hybridization of DNA molecules represents where the object image exists in the several search images. DNA molecules can be used as a parallel searching computer for image recognition.
