Tracking nonparameterized object contours in video
We propose a new method for contour tracking in video. The inverted distance transform of the edge map is used as an edge indicator function for contour detection. Using the concep...

Edge-Enhancement - An Algorithm for Real-Time Non-Photorealistic Rendering
In this paper, we propose an algorithm for enhancing edges of real-time non-photorealistic renderings. It is based on the edge map, a 2D texture that encodes visually important ed...

Impact of Intensity Edge map on Segmentation of Noisy Range Images
In this paper, we investigate the impact of intensity edge maps (IEMs) on the segmentation of noisy range images. Two edgebased segmentation algorithms are considered. The first i...

Robust Extraction of Vertices in Range Images by Constraining the Hough Transform
We describe a technique for extracting vertices from range images of cluttered box-like objects. Edge detection is performed and an edge map is acquired. Extraction of vertices is ...

Boundary extraction in thermal images by edge map
Extracting object boundaries in thermal images is a challenging task because of the amorphous nature of the images and the lack of sharp boundaries. Classical edge-based segmentat...
