Abstract: This paper presents an algorithm that detects certain objects in a moving image and extracts their features. We named this algorithm as the purification algorithm because it is also used for purifying the remains of detected objects and for saving each purified object as a separate image file. The algorithm is implemented on the Bi-i Cellular Vision System which is a Cellular Neural Network(CNN) Universal Machine. The CNN Universal Machine is known as the analogical array computer and it contains two processors which can work interactively with each other. These processors are the ACE16k that is the hardware implementation of CNNs and the Digital Signal Processor(DSP). The purification algorithm is implemented with two different applications. In the first application, all phases of the algorithm are implemented just on the DSP. In the second application, the morphological operations of the algorithm are performed on the ACE16k and all other operations are performed!
on the DSP. Therefore, in the latter one, the application is run in coordination with both the ACE16k processor and the DSP. The obtained results are evaluated in terms of the run-time of the purification algorithm to show the comparison of these applications. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is good.
