Abstract :
A new edge detection operator based on image features is proposed, which analyzes edges in images for edge features in two dimensions. The local extreme of the operator is created at the edge location and a low value is created at the smooth region. Edges can be located by obtaining the local extreme and a threshold of the operator response. The detection operator is shown to be better than the Canny operator in terms of signal-to-noise ratio and edge location accuracy
