A HYBRID TECHNIQUE FOR EDGE DETECTION

In this paper a hybrid technique for edge detection is developed. This technique works in two step for edge detection. In first step, Canny Algorithm is applied for image smoothing and in second step neural network is to detecting actual edges. Neural network is an authentic tool for edge detection. As we know, it is a non-linear network with built-in thresholding capability. Neural Network can be trained with back propagation technique by using few training patterns but the most important task is to identify the correct training set.
