Abstract

This work provides a review of various techniques which have been presented in literature for detection of edges in digital images. Various techniques have been proposed over the years using linear and nonlinear gradient operators. Apart from these operators, techniques such as fuzzy logic have also been used for edge extraction. These detection techniques have also been used for various applications such as image restoration, segmentation, object detection and so on.
