    Edge Line Detection: Image Processing Lec (7) Ahmed AL - Basha & Saadaldeen AHMED

    Uploaded by

    Glynn Harlow
    This document discusses edge and line detection in image processing. It describes several common edge detection operators used to find edges in images such as Roberts operator, Sobel operator, Prewitt operator, and Laplacian operator. These operators use convolution masks to detect edges by looking at differences in pixel values between neighboring pixels. The document provides an example of using the Roberts and Sobel operators to detect edges in a sample image.

    EDGE LINE DETECTION

    The edge and line detection operators presented here represent the various
    types of operators used today. They are implemented with convolution
    masks and most are based on discrete approximations to differential
    operators. Edge detection methods are used as a first step in the line
    detection process.

    Detecting edges is a basic operation in image processing. The edges of


    items in an image hold much of the information in the image. The edges
    tell you where:

    Items are.

    Their size.

    shape

    And something about their texture.


    Methods of detection edge

    Edge detection operators are based on the idea that edge information in an
    image is found by looking at the relationship of pixels with its neighbors.

    So if their gray-level value is similar with these around it “actual there is

    no edge “and their edge with neighbor are widely different in gray-level

    “that is mean actually it is edge found”. In practice, edges are caused by:

    Change in color or texture, Specific lighting conditions present during the


    image acquisition process.

    There are many masks use to detect the edge/line .The masks are:
    1. Roberts operator
    2. Sobol operator
    3. Prewitt operator
    4. Kirsch compass masks
    5. Robinson compass masks
    6. Laplacian operator
    7. Fre-chen masks
    8. Edge operator performance
    9. Hough transform
    1-Roberts operator:

    The Roberts operator mark edge only, it dose not return any information
    about the edge orientation. It is simplest for edge detection and it is work
    best with binary edge. There are two form of operator. First form of
    reports operator is:

    Example: suppose we have this image

    2- Sobel operator: The sobel edge detection look for edge in both
    direction (H and V) then combine this information into single metric.
    Sobel edge used two masks the:

    Example: If we won't to compute the edge for this image

    Then find the vertical


    New-pixel= -20-(23+23)-23+30+(55+55)+28 =79
    Then when we find the horizontal and vertical edge we can then find the
    edge magnitude and direction
    109 for x and 79 for y

    = 109*109+79*79=134.61
    Edge direction = tan -1(109*109/79*79)= 62.28
