β¦ Synopsis
We propose a statistical approach to combining edge cues at multiple scales using data driven probability distributions. These distributions are learnt on the Sowerby and South Florida datasets which include the ground truth positions of edges. We evaluate our results using Chernoff information and conditional entropy. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of multi-scale processing and validate previous heuristics such as coarse-to-fine edge tracking.

In this paper we present a morphologic edge detection methods using multi-scale approach for detecting edges of various fineness under noisy condition. It is shown that the proposed edge detector has the desirable properties that a good edge detector should have. Comparative study reveals its superi
