Abstract :
The paper deals with the analytical expression of the uncertainty on edge localization in image analysis applications. The analysis carried out relates analytically the uncertainty affecting the intensity of input image to the output uncertainty of edge detectors based on first and second derivative proprieties. The theoretical results are validated through experimental tests performed on real images acquired in typical conditions of an industrial environment
