Comparative Study and Analysis of Various Edge Detection Algorithms in Digital Image Processing

In the field of image processing, edge detection is an important step for extracting relevant and meaningful information from digital images. The main goal of edge detection techniques is to obtain and detect thin edges of the objects present in the image, so that the result is more suitable for further processing and analysis such as boundary detection, image segmentation, motion detection/estimation, texture analysis, object identification, feature detection, implementing various transformations and so on. We tested six edge detection algorithms that use different methods for detecting edges and compared their results under a variety of situations to determine a generally preferable technique under different sets of conditions. This data could then be used to create a multi-edge-detector system, which analyses the scene and runs the edge detector best suited for the current set of data. For each of these edge detectors we considered two different ways of implementation, the one using intensity only and the other coupling to it, the colour information. We also considered one additional edge detector which takes a different philosophy to edge detection. Rather than trying to find the ideal edge detector to apply to traditional photographs, it would be more efficient to merely change the method of photography to one which is more conducive to edge detection. It makes use of a camera that takes multiple images in rapid succession under different lighting conditions. It has been observed that the Canny"s edge detection algorithm performs better than all these operators under almost all scenarios. Evaluation of the images showed that under noisy conditions Canny, LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian), Robert, Prewitt, Sobel exhibit better performance, respectively. It has been observed that Canny"s edge detection algorithm is computationally more expensive compared to LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian), Sobel, Prewitt and Robert"s cross operator.

Study and Analysis of Edge Detection Techniques in Digital Images

This work provides a review of various techniques which have been presented in literature for detection of edges in digital images. Various techniques have been proposed over the years using linear and nonlinear gradient operators. Apart from these operators, techniques such as fuzzy logic have also been used for edge extraction. These detection techniques have also been used for various applications such as image restoration, segmentation, object detection and so on.

A study of Edge Detection Techniques

An edge is a sharp discontinuity or a significant change in local intensity of an image. The process for tracking the edge of various components in an image is referred to as edge detection. Edge detector operators is classified into two basic types, namely, Gradient based or first order derivative based edge detectors and second order derivative based edge detectors. This paper describes these two algorithms in detail along with stepwise image examples.

Edge Detection Techniques in Digital and Optical Image Processing

This study focuses on various edge detection methods .Edge detection is the common approach used in segmentation.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION AND EFFECTIVE ANALYSIS OF EDGE DETECTION ALGORITHMS

Edge detection in a digital image is one of the important jobs in digital image processing. Edges in the image are the significance of discontinuity present in the image. Detecting the accurate edges or boundaries ease the location of objects in the image and parameters like shape, area can be measured easily. This paper presents a brief study on different edge detection techniques like Canny Operator, Sobel Operator, Prewitt Operator and Roberts Operator. Quality Assessment research is to measure the image quality. Unclear boundaries are produced due to low quality and other possible factors present in the image. Brief analysis of different edge detection algorithms are discussed here. The experimental results are produced and validated with the help of MATLAB Software

A Classified and Comparative Study of Edge Detection Algorithms

2002

Since edge detection is in the forefront of image processing for object detection, it is crucial to have a good understanding of edge detection algorithms. This paper introduces a new classification of most important and commonly used edge detection algorithms, namely ISEF, Canny, Marr-Hildreth, Sobel, Kirsch, Lapla1 and Lapla2. Five categories are included in our classification, and then advantages and disadvantages of some available algorithms within this category are discussed. A representative group containing the above seven algorithms are the implemented in C++ and compared subjectively, using 30 images out of 100 images. Two sets of images resulting from the application of those algorithms are then presented. It is shown that under noisy conditions, ISEF, Canny, Marr-Hildreth, Kirsch, Sobel, Lapla2, Lapla1 exhibit better performance, respectively.

Identification of suitable edge detection algorithm for different Image formats

Edge detection is an important task in image processing. It is a main tool in pattern recognition, image segmentation, and scene analysis. An edge detector is basically a high pass filter that can be applied to extract the edge points in an image. There are many methods for edge detection, but most of them can be grouped into two categories, search-based (gradient based methods) and zero-crossing based. In the research paper, the different edge detection algorithms such as Sobel, Robert cross, prewitt, LOG and Canny are considered with blurring and without blurring environments [3]. The different algorithms are considered in the noisy and noise free environments. The noises considered are Gaussian, Poisson, salt & pepper and speckle. In the research paper different file formats such as PNG, TIFF and JPEG are considered and the edge detection algorithm is compared for different file formats and the correlation coefficient is measured for the input image and edge detected image.
