Abstract

The multiscale techniques for edge detection aim to combine the advantages of small and large scale methods, usually by blending their results. In this work we introduce a method for the multiscale extension of the Gravitational Edge Detector based on a t-norm T. We smoothen the image with a Gaussian filter at different scales then perform inter-scale edge tracking. Results are included illustrating the improvements resulting from the application of the multiscale approach in both a quantitative and a qualitative way.
