Adaptive methods of two-scale edge detection in post-enhancement visual pattern processing
Adaptive methods are defined and experimentally studied for a two-scale edge detection process that mimics human visual perception of edges and is inspired by the parvo-cellular (...

Edge Detection Based on Spiking Neural Network Model
Inspired by the behaviour of biological receptive fields and the human visual system, a network model based on spiking neurons is proposed to detect edges in a visual image. The st...
