Summary: Multilevel image thresholding is essential in multimedia tools to understand objects in the real world, but the 1-D Masi entropy-based thresholding lacks consideration of contextual information. To address this, a 2-D Masi entropy-based thresholding method utilizing a 2-D histogram was proposed. The computational complexity was reduced by using a nature-inspired optimizer, the leader Harris hawks optimization (LHHO), which improved performance compared to the Harris hawks optimization (HHO).

Summary: This paper proposes an efficient multilevel thresholding segmentation method based on improved Chimp Optimization Algorithm (IChOA) to improve traditional image segmentation. Kapur entropy is used as the objective function to find the best threshold values for RGB images. Several strategies are introduced including population initialization strategy combining with Gaussian chaos and opposition-based learning, the position update mechanism of particle swarm algorithm (PSO), the Gaussian-Cauchy mutation, and the adaptive nonlinear strategy. These methods enhance the diversity of the population and improve the exploration and exploitation capabilities of IChOA. Furthermore, the search ability, accuracy, and stability of IChOA are significantly enhanced.
