Abstract

Edge detection plays an important role in many Image processing applications. In any Image Segmentation technique edges are primary features. Edge detection refers to the process of identifying and locating sharp discontinuities in an image. So, edge detection is an important part in image analysis and it is also playing a key role of solving many complex problems. In this paper, our main aim is to compare the various edge detection algorithms for image segmentations.
