This paper suggests an approach to the subtle concept, "good", through the fuzzy logic and the design of the Canny edge detector of Gray scale images based on the rules of fuzzy anisotropic diffusion. The Canny edge detection algorithms design is to divide the gray levels into pixels and then calculate the diffusion coefficients at each pixel of non-edgy regions. Based on this processing, we present the Canny edge detector implementing fuzzy logic and comparing the results to other existing methods. The proposed approach is the narrow dynamic range of the gray-level image Sharpening the edge detection and has the advantage.

In this paper, the hybrid function by local scale control is proposed to detect the optimal edges from blurred images. In the case of image capturing, some blurring is occurred by the characteristics of the illumination and the reflected light. During processing the blurred image, it is difficult to detect perfect edges. This algorithm proposed a new hybrid function which is merged Gaussian function and the second derivative of Gaussian function. And it detects the optimal edges applying directional edge detection by Canny algorithm as the scale factor of $\sigma$ in the given local mask has been changed after convolving the hybrid function for input image. In the result, the performance is confirmed that this algorithm is better than Sobel, Robert and Canny edge detector by analyzing the some test images. And the results is obtained 0.2 ㏈ ~ 14 ㏈ of PSNR than those conventional method.

조명 및 반사광의 성질에 의해 블러링이 발생하고 이런 영상을 인식하는 경우 정확한 에지 검출이 어렵게 된다. 이를 최적으로 검출하기 위해 일정하게 에지를 검출할 수 있는 가우시안 함수와 2차 미분 함수를 합성한 새로운 하이브리드 함수를 제안하고 실제 영상과 컨볼루션 한 후 함수의 $\sigma$값을 변화시키면서, Canny 알고리즘의 방향성 에지 검출 방법을 적용하여 에지를 검출하였다. 그 결과 Sobel, Robert, Canny 에지 검출방법보다 0.2~14㏈ 정도 안정적으로 에지가 검출되었다.

컨테이너 영상의 문자를 인식하는데 있어 정규화 되어 있지 않은 컨테이너 영상의 문자영역을 추출한다는 것은 어렵다. 색깔. 위치, 글자 크기 등이 정해져 있지 않기 때문에 일정한 규칙으로 찾기는 힘들다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 특성을 고려하여 형태학적인 특성이 아니라 명암도를 조사하여 문자가 분포할 가능성이 있는 후보 영역을 찾고 Canny 에지 추출 기법과 에지 추적 기법으로서 문자가 있는 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 컨테이너의 문자 영역에서 히스토그램 방법을 이용하여 개별 문자를 추출하고 ART 알고리즘을 이용하여 인식한다. 실험 결과에서는 여러 영상에 대해 인식율이 우수한 것을 보인다.

Video object segmentation is an important component for object-based video coding scheme such as MPEG-4. In this paper, a robust algorithm for segmentation of moving objects in video sequences and VOP(Video Object Planes) extraction is presented. The points of this paper are detection, of an accurate object boundary by associating moving object edge with spatial object edge and generation of VOP. The algorithm begins with the difference between two successive frames. And after extracting difference image, the accurate moving object edge is produced by using the Canny algorithm and morphological operation. To enhance extracting performance, we app]y the morphological operation to extract more accurate VOP. To be specific, we apply morphological erosion operation to detect only accurate object edges. And moving object edges between two images are generated by adjusting the size of the edges. This paper presents a robust algorithm implementation for fast moving object detection by extracting accurate object boundaries in video sequences.

Lane detection with the use of a camera is an essential task required for the development of advanced driving assistance system. In this paper, edges of the lane are generated by applying Canny's method. The edge detection usually makes different results for several environmental conditions depending on the clearness of lane quality, so that it sometimes causes wrong lane detection. Therefore, we propose robust algorithm to environmental changes that automatically adjusts parameter for edge detection and generates edges more stably. Based on the acquired edges, we finally generate the spline curve of lane by using Catmull Rom spline.

본 논문에서는 에지 검출기에 의해 다양한 명암이 존재하는 차량 번호판 영역의 사각형 에지를 검출시 사용되는 소벨 및 Prewitt, Roberts, 가우시안의 라플라시안, 그리고 Canny 검출기를 사용하여 처리 속도와 에지 검출의 정확성을 실험하여 각 연산자의 성능을 평가하였다. 기존의 Sobel 에지 검출기는 적응적 임계값을 구하지 않으면 다양한 조명의 영향에 강인하지 못하다. 또한 Canny 에지 검출기는 조명의 영향에 강인하기는 하나, 계산량이 Sobel 보다는 많아 처리 속도가 느리다. 색상에 의해 번호판 후보 영역을 추출한 후 에지 검출기 번호판 내의 명암이 둘 이상으로 차량 번호판 영역에 대해서, 다양한 에지 검출기를 적용하여 속도와 에지 검출 성능을 비교 평가하고자 한다.

The modified Canny edge detection algorithm that can detect the boundary between screen door and platform in the subway is proposed in this paper. Generally, in the subway, the boundary line between the platform and the screen door is darker than the surrounding area. Therefore, an edge image is using the modified bottom-hat transform by considering its characteristics. Double thresholded images with strong edge and weak edge through double thresholding are obtained. An algorithm that detects the boundary invasion between the platform and the screen door is proposed by calculating the length by applying the Hough transform to the double thresholded image and comparing the boundary line length between when there is an object such as a person and when there is no object. In this paper, the results of the proposed modified Canny edge detection algorithm using two different input images according to camera height position are shown by computer simulation.

An edge is where the intensity of an image moves from a low value to high value or vice versa. The edges tell where objects are. their shape and size. and something about their texture. Many traditional edge operators are derivative based and perform reasonably well for simple noise-free images. In recent, statistical edge detectors for complex images with noises have been described. This paper compares and analysis the performance of statistical edge detectors based on the T test and Wilcoxon test, and mathematical edge detectors based on Sobel operator, and the well-known Canny detector and Wavelet transformation detector, and provides the implementation of these edge detectors using Java on the web.

In this paper we employ two-sample location tests such as Wilcoxon test and T test for detecting edges in noisy images. For this, we compute a test statistic on pixel gray levels obtained using an edge-height parameter and compare it with a threshold determined by a significance level. Experimental results applied to sample images are given and performances of these tests in terms of the objective measure are compared.
