Poonam Panwar, Neeru Gulati

Genetic Algorithm is a search technique used in computing to find approximate solutions to optimization and search problems. As a search strategy, genetic algorithm has been applied successfully in many fields. Firstly, this paper describes the genetic algorithms evolution process .It then describes the active contours to detect the boundaries of the object whose boundaries are not defined. Then it describes the use of genetic algorithm with active contours in image segmentation.
