Abstract:
Edge map is considered as an important
entity containing most of object features in an image.
Many computer vision systems rely on the use of the
boundary line information to perform the object
recognition tasks. However, with the exception of
images acquired from highly restricted environment,
common edge detectors do not guarantee the
production of continuous boundaries of objects. In
this paper, a local processing based edge-linking
algorithm is proposed. We set a criterion involving
multiple properties of the pixel to find the best
candidate points for edge linking. In addition, this
algorithm is implemented on Spiral Architecture.
