Abstract

This paper presents a new description of image edge in the form of asymptote equation utilizing knowledge of differential geometry, and modifies a popular parlance in the traditional image processing. This paper develops the gradient concept and defines a generalized grads operator. The operator is a novel nonlinear transform, which inherits the strongpoint of noise suppression from the classical Gaussian differential filter and has a better edge extraction function. The experimental results show the proposed edge detection algorithm is powerful and effective.
