Abstract :
This paper presents a new hierarchical method of the edge relaxation by using an edge confidence measure. Proposed method is an adaptive and based on directional hierarchical image decomposition and an edge connecting algorithm. It is shown that such combination has low sensitivity to noise, while it is highly robust to outliers, and provide a quality edge connection mechanism
