Use of convexity in contour detection
Victor Churchill
Abstrak
In this paper, we formulate a simple algorithm that detects contours around a region of interest in an image. After an initial smoothing, the method is based on viewing an image as a topographic surface and finding convex and/or concave regions using simple calculus-based testing. The algorithm can achieve multi-scale contour detection by altering the initial smoothing. We show that the method has promise by comparing results on several images with the watershed transform performed on the gradient images.
