A Multi-scale Morphological Algorithm for AFM Micrograph Edge Detection
Xue Gang Fu, Hua Jiang · 2015
In this paper we present a new morphological edge detection method using a multi-scale approach. Edges of different fineness are detected using operator at different scale, and then they are regulated in order to eliminate the difference of gray attribution among multi-scale edges, and then combined to produce all the edges of interest in an image using the adaptive fusion method of minimums. The experiment results show that the fuzziness of image edge detection is reduced, and noise is removed efficiently, and distinct edges can be detected efficiently for micrograph.
