Edge in the image includes the size, direction and location of objects. The existing detection methods for detecting this edge is a method using Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Laplacian, etc. These existing methods use a fixed weighted mask in order to detect the edge and have somewhat insufficient edge detection characteristics. Therefore in this paper, an algorithm that detects the edge by applying the grey level converting function according to the pixel distribution of local mask was proposed.

Currently, edge detection is utilized in various areas. Edge detection is the preprocessing process for image processing in general, and this is a technology that is considered essential for image processing. According, research on this subject is carried out incessantly. Edge has important image related elements such as size, direction and location of the object of an image. Numerous methods were proposed for the detection. Among them, the representative methods are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian. However, these existing methods are rather lacking when it comes to the edge detection characteristics in case of the image with mixed noise. Therefore, this study presented edge detection method that utilizes median and average values for the elements depending on the size and location of local mask.

The performances of previous edge detection methods such as Sobel, Prewitt, and LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian) are insufficient for images degraded in AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise). Therefore, in this paper, we proposed an edge detection algorithm using a modified coefficient masks with gradient masks and distance weight mask. In order to confirm and verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, we simulated and compared proposed algorithm to conventional methods on various standard images added AWGN with a standard deviation ${\sigma}$=15, 30 and proposed algorithm shows superior edge detection characteristics in processed images.

For edge detection methods, there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Canny edge detector, and these methods have insufficient detection characteristics in the image corrupted by the impulse noise. Therefore in this paper, in order to improve these disadvantages of the previous methods and to effectively detect the edge in the impulse noise environment, using the $5{\times}5$ mask, the noise factors within the $3{\times}3$ mask based on the central pixel is determined, and depending on its status, for noise-free it is processed as is, and if noise is found, by obtaining the estimated mask using the adjacent pixels of each factor, an algorithm that detects the edge is proposed.

Edge Detection is a technique that obtains the particular information of the image using the brightness variation of pixel values and utilized for preprocessing in various image processing sectors. The conventional edge detection methods such as Sobel, Prewitt and Roberts are processed by applying the same weighted value to the entire pixels regardless of pixel distrbution and provides somewhat insufficient edge detection results. therefore, this paper has proposed an edge detection method considering the direction and magnitute of pixels by applying a modified directional mask.

Edge detection is an essential preprocessing for most image processing application, and there are several existing detection methods such as Sobel, Roberts, Laplacian, LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian) operators, etc. Those existing edge detection methods have not given satisfactory results since they do not offer enough pixel brightness change in low light level environment. Therefore, in this study new algorithms using brightness transfer function in the preprocessing and for edge detection applying standard deviation and average-weighted local masks are proposed. In addition, the performance of proposed algorithms was evaluated in comparison with the existing edge detection methods such as Sobel, Roberts, Prewitt, Laplacian, LoG operators.

Contemporary society has evolved in the digital information age. Because of this, use of various digital images has been increased. To process these images, various digital image processing methods are used. Edge detection methods, one of those, are utilized to various areas of application such as object recognition, line detection. To detect edge, there are many methods such as Sobel, Prewitt, Laplacian. Because images which are dealt with existing methods are processed in same methods regardless the distribution of gray-level in image, edge detection property is insufficient. Therefore, In this study, to improve shortcomings of existing methods an algorithm using modified expansion mask is proposed.

In the modern society, according to the advancement in digital image processing technology, edge detection is being utilized in various application sectors such as smart device and medical, etc. In existing edge detection methods, there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Laplacian, etc, which uses the mask. These previous methods are easy to implement but shows somewhat insufficient results. Therefore, in order to compensate the problems of existing methods, in this paper, an algorithm that detects the edge using the local mask and morphological operation was proposed and the detection performance was compared against the previous methods.

Edge detection is an important step in determining the performance of lane recognition, object and pattern detection, and so on. And much research has been done until now. Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, and Canny edge detection algorithms are widely known. However, these algorithms are often judged to be a non-edge region when processing a smooth change in brightness value. Therefore, in this paper, edge detection algorithm using gray-level morphology using erosion, expansion, open and close in the mask area. is proposed.
