Edge Detection Using an Artificial Neural Network

This is the fourth in a series of reports to document development of a generalized method to create artificial neural networks (ANNs) via a genetic algorithm (GA). This report will be divided into several main sections. Goals The goal of this report is to demonstrate the ability of an ANN to detect edges in images. Background Report #3 was a culmination of the evolution of Genetic Algorithm generated Artificial Neural Networks. This report details how to detect edges in images using the same principles.
