A Comparative Analysis of Thresholding and Edge Detection Segmentation Techniques

Abstract

Thresholding and edge detection being one of the important aspects of image segmentation comes prior to feature extraction and image recognition system for analyzing images. It helps in extracting the basic shape of an image, overlooking the minute unnecessary details. In this paper using image segmentation (thresholding and edge detection) techniques different geo satellite images, medical images and architectural images are analyzed. To quantify the consistency of our results error measure is used.
