Abstract :
Boundary detection in digital images is viewed as a clustering problem. A survey of boundary detection techniques based on fuzzy clustering is presented. Algorithms to detect linear, planar, and curved boundary detection are surveyed. Limitations of these techniques are discussed, along with a review of approaches proposed to overcome these limitations
