A Multi-Directions Algorithm for Edge Detection Based on Fuzzy Mathematical Morphology

Abstract

This paper brings forward a multi-directions algorithm for image edge detection based on fuzzy mathematical morphology. In this algorithm, we integrate the multi-directions characteristic of structure elements and fuzzy image characteristic into mathematical morphology, and then use mathematical morphology to detect image edge. It is indicated from experiment that this algorithm has succeeded in edge detection, and it has better effect than other traditional arithmetic operators of edge detection.
