Abstract :
Detecting edges of objects in their images is a basic problem in computational vision. The authors present the major ideas behind the use of scale space and anisotropic diffusion for edge detection, show that anisotropic diffusion can enhance edges, suggest a network implementation of anisotropic diffusion, and provide design criteria for obtaining networks performing scale space and edge detection. The results of a software implementation are shown
