Edge detection is an active and critical topic in the field of image processing, and plays a vital role for some important applications such as image segmentation, pattern classification, object tracking, etc. In this paper, an edge detection approach is proposed using local edge pattern descriptor which possesses multiscale and multiresolution property, and is named varied local edge pattern (VLEP) descriptor. This method contains the following steps: firstly, Gaussian filter is used to smooth the original image. Secondly, the edge strength values, which are used to calculate the edge gradient values and can be obtained by one or more groups of VLEPs. Then, weighted fusion idea is considered when multiple groups of VLEP descriptors are used. Finally, the appropriate threshold is set to perform binarization processing on the gradient version of the image. Experimental results show that the proposed edge detection method achieved better performance than other state-of-the-art edge detection methods.

This paper reviews some gradient edge detection methods and proposes a new detector — the template matching edge detector (TMED). This detector utilizes the concepts of pattern analysis and the template matching of 3×3 masks. A set of performance criteria was used to evaluate the gradient edge detectors as well as the template matching edge detector. The results indicate that the new method is superior to the other gradient edge detectors. In addition, the template matching edge detector has also demonstrated good performance on noisy images. It can obtain very precise edge detection of single pixel width.
