Abstract

We describe a multiresolution approach to edge detection using a sequential search algorithm. The use of a multiresolution image pyramid allows the integration of global edge information contained in lower resolutions to guide the sequential search at higher resolutions. As a consequence, the dependence on a priori knowledge of the image edges is greatly reduced. Estimating the sequential search parameters from lower resolution images provides for a more accurate and less costly search of edge paths in the image.
