Fuzzy rule-based boundary enhancement algorithm for noisy images

This paper represents a new edge relaxation algorithm that enhances the noisy boundary informations in images. The proposed algorithm employes relaxation process that reduces or eliminates ambiguities of derivative operator response via contextual informations. The contextual informations are the neighborhood patterns of a central edge which are estimated using fuzzy pattern matching technique. The algorithm is developed on crack edges. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme is effective even for noisy images or low contrast images.
