A Wavelet-Based Edge Detection Method by Scale Multiplication
نویسندگان
چکیده
A wavelet-based multiscale edge detection scheme is presented in this paper. By multiplying the wavelet coefficients at two adjacent scales to magnify significant structures and suppress noise, we determined edges as the local maxima directly in the scale product after an efficient thresholding instead of first forming the edge maps at several scales and then synthesizing them together, which was employed in many multiscale techniques. It is shown that the scale multiplication achieves better results than either of the two scales, especially on the localization performance. Experiments on natural images are compared with the Laplacian of Gaussian (LOG) and Canny edge detection algorithms.

Edge Detection with Hessian Matrix Property Based on Wavelet Transform
In this paper, we present an edge detection method based on wavelet transform and Hessian matrix of image at each pixel. Many methods which based on wavelet transform, use wavelet transform to approximate the gradient of image and detect edges by searching the modulus maximum of gradient vectors. In our scheme, we use wavelet transform to approximate Hessian matrix of image at each pixel, too. ...
متن کاملEdge detection by scale multiplication in wavelet domain
This paper proposes a wavelet based edge detection scheme by scale multiplication. The dyadic wavelet transforms at two adjacent scales are multiplied as a product function to magnify the edge structures and suppress the noise. Unlike many multiscale techniques that first form the edge maps at several scales and then synthesize them together, we determined the edges as the local maxima directly...

متن کاملSpeckle Reduction in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images in Wavelet Domain Exploiting Intra-scale and Inter-scale Dependencies
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images are inherently affected by a multiplicative noise-like phenomenon called speckle, which is indeed the nature of all coherent systems. Speckle decreases the performance of almost all the information extraction methods such as classification, segmentation, and change detection, therefore speckle must be suppressed. Despeckling can be applied by the multilooki...

This paper present a new simplification algorithm named EQEM which is based on the QEM algorithm to simplify geometry model with texture. The algorithm used a new framework to integrate geometry and texture factor into simplification process. In the framework, an error metric descriptor is described in detail. Firstly, Gauss curvature of the vertex should be calculated to assure good geometry s...
