Abstract: In this paper, an improved edge detection algorithm
based on fuzzy combination of mathematical morphology and
wavelet transform is proposed. The combined method is proposed to
overcome the limitation of wavelet based edge detection and
mathematical morphology based edge detection in noisy images.
Experimental results show superiority of the proposed method, as
compared to the traditional Prewitt, wavelet based and morphology
based edge detection methods. The proposed method is an effective
edge detection method for noisy image and keeps clear and
continuous edges.
