A Novel Method of Edge Detection using Cellular Automata

Tapas Kumar, G. Sahoo · International Journal of Computer Applications · 2010

Edge detection is one of the most commonly used operations in image analysis.Several edge detectors have been proposed in literature for enhancing and detecting of edges.In this paper a new and optimal approach of edge detection based on Cellular Automata (CA) has been proposed.The idea is simple but effective technique for edge detection that greatly improves the performances of complicated images.The comparative analysis of various image edge detection methods is presented and shown that cellular automata based algorithm performs better than all these operators under almost all scenarios.
