چکیده

This paper presents a novel direction based edge detector which not only can detect the whole edges in an image like other edge detectors, but also more effectively detect edges in any directions that are pre-selected by users. It provides users with an additional function to extract pieces of edges of the directions of particular interest. The algorithm is described in details. Effectiveness of the proposed edge detector is evaluated by comparing it with the Canny edge detector. The results are found to be promising.

A FUZZY DIFFERENCE BASED EDGE DETECTOR

In this paper, a new algorithm for edge detection based on fuzzyconcept is suggested. The proposed approach defines dynamic membershipfunctions for different groups of pixels in a 3 by 3 neighborhood of the centralpixel. Then, fuzzy distance and -cut theory are applied to detect the edgemap by following a simple heuristic thresholding rule to produce a thin edgeimage. A large number of experime...

Novel Phase-frequency Detector based on Quantum-dot Cellular Automata Nanotechnology

The electronic industry has grown vastly in recent years, and researchers are trying to minimize circuits delay, occupied area and power consumption as much as possible. In this regard, many technologies have been introduced. Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA) is one of the schemes to design nano-scale digital electronic circuits. This technology has high speed and low power consumption, and occup...

A novel approach for edge detection based on the theory of universal gravity

This paper presents a new, simple and effective low-level processing edge detection algorithm based on the law of universal gravity. The algorithm assumes that each image pixel is a celestial body with a mass represented by its grayscale intensity. Accordingly, each celestial body exerts forces onto its neighboring pixels and in return receives forces from the neighboring pixels. These forces c...

تخمین وفقی مرز کلاتر در کلاتر‌های ویبول با استفاده از پیش آشکارساز UMPI

In radar detection, the existence of the clutter edge in the reference samples considerably degrades the performance of the detector. Hence, clutter edge estimation not only improves the CFAR detectors, but also can be used for partitioning the various areas of the clutter in the clutter map. In this paper, we propose an adaptive algorithm for detecting the clutter edge between two Weibull clut...

Extended ratio edge detector for despeckled SAR image evaluation

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images due to the usage of coherent imaging systems are affected by speckle. So lots of despeckling filters have been introduced up to now to suppress the speckle. Hence, objective and subjective evaluation of the denoised SAR images becomes a necessity. Thereby lots of objective evaluating estimators are introduced to evaluate the performance of despeckling filte...
