| Abstract(in English) | The importance of edge detection is, nowadays, leading to the development of improved edge detection methods. In this paper we described a novel image filter that produces an angle-dependent edge detection followed by a thresholding stage and, finally, by a thinning stage. In the angle-dependent edge detection stage, we show how, applying an alternative method, can be obtained a pair of edge detectors that are orthogonal between them. Modified threshold and thinning methods are included to improve the quality of the edge detected image. We also show how the entire filter could be implemented as a Cellular Neural Network (CNN). Thus, the system inherits all the dynamics as well as the energy and stability characteristics of a CNN. Some necessary background is first introduced. Our preliminary simulations as well as preliminary results, are presented. An evaluation of the results obtained is included along with suggestions for further research. |
