In this paper, a newfangled technique for edge detection that combines the Khalil con-formable derivative and the Hessian matrix is developed and experimentally validated. The following main aspects are considered: (i) to attenuate image noise a Gaussian kernel inspired by the Khalil conformable derivative was developed. (ii) The spatial derivatives of the image gray level are calculated via the Khalil derivative, which is suitable for maintaining object contours and texture information even in low-contrast and resolution images. (iii) The conformable Hessian matrix is obtained from these image derivatives, generating continuous, thicker, and brighter edges. Our operator is compared with some existing techniques. Simulation results on different test images confirm a greater robustness to noise by our operator as well as a better visual quality of the edge maps obtained. This statement is validated through a comparative analysis based on peak signal-to-noise ratio and edge-strength-similarity-based image quality. In addition, it is applied in medical image processing and analysis tasks such as mammogram images, computed tomography scans, and magnetic resonance imaging for identification tasks of middle cerebral artery aneurysms, calcifications and breast cancer, proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy, and cerebral arteriovenous malformations. According to our findings, the conformable operator allows better visual identification of the structure of these conditions, improving the accuracy of clinical diagnosis and its subsequent monitoring.

Edge detection techniques in digital image processing are a very valuable area of research. In recent years, there are two more popular edge detection algorithms, one is Canny edge detection algorithm,and the other is edge detection algorithm based on Fuzzy Logic. Both algorithms have been used in various fields. The main work of this paper is to do a brief introduction of two algorithms and compare the results from them.
... According to the obtained results, the fractional conformable operator performs better than any of traditional operators for edge detection in noisy images, that is, it is more robust to noise than other techniques. On the other hand, ground truth edge maps taken from a Berkeley segmentation [46] and a fuzzy operator [47] because it has higher edge detection capability for both cases, strong and weak edges.

Edge enhancement and preservation of edges to emphasize the features for images is an essential task in computer vision. The conventional operators may cause false edge detection. In this paper, a fuzzy inference system (FIS) is proposed, which combines with Wavelet (WT) based multidirectional and multilevel edge finding technique for getting good edge localization. After applying of WT decomposition on the original image, the coefficients are filtered out from horizontal, vertical, and diagonal directions. A non-linear energy operator is applied to all WT decomposition to corroborate the edge pixels. This energy calculated edge coefficients are given into the FIS for better enhancement. Since WTs allow for separation of the image into frequency bands without affecting spatial locality, the real edge pixels are further emphasized.

This paper describes a new color image edge detection method. Edge detection application based on fuzzy set theory is introduced in this paper. First of all, we design fuzzy inference engine to detect image edges. In inference engine step, two Gaussian membership functions in two directions (horizontal and vertical) are used for input signals. Finally, two triangle and one Gaussian membership functions were used for defuzzification step. By using fuzzy process and defuzzification, we obtain a relationship between input and output values. Simulation results show the proposed method outperformed conventional edge detection methods.

In this paper a novel object detection with the combination of fuzzy concepts and SURF is presented. This method contains several steps which are fuzzy C-mean (FCM) clustering, Gaussian filter, edge detection and speed-up robust feature (SURF). The image contains the target object which can be taken from a camera more than 2 meters away. SURF is used to detect the feature points and extract the feature descriptor that shows an excellent performance on robust and accurate object detection; however, it is prone to fail when the target object is rather far away from the camera such as the distance more than 2 meters. The proposed method addresses to solve the problem that is achieved by some pre-processing for the image as follows. Using FCM to shows up the colourful parts and using fuzzy inference system (FIS) to detect the edges in the image. The above two processes can improve the accuracy of feature detection and reduce the calculation of the descriptor in SURF. The experiment shows the proposed method performs the target extraction efficiently and accurately with the distance 2 meters between the target object and the camera.

During past few decades, medical Image Processing brought a great contribution in visualization of human anatomy and radically enhanced the Computer-aided diagnostic systems. It assists medical practitioners for detection and localization of pathological deformations. In which, the advanced Digital Image Processing techniques are used to analyze the various internal structures of body of the patients.Image segmentation is one of the significant step in any Digital Image Processing application, it aims to simplify and change the representation of an image into something that is more meaningful and easier to analyze.To get the appropriate image segmentation, Edge detection is considered as one of the eminent and promising techniques. Simply the Edges are characterize boundaries which help to extract the suitable features. In present research work four fuzzy rule based edge detection techniques are applied and their results are comparatively analyzed. It has been found that the segmentation accuracy of 2x2 mask scanning 10 rule based system is more precise than other tested methods. The output image consists of edges and it is a gray type of image.
... In the first order of filters any abrupt changes in the pixels intensity between two neighboring pixels is called to be an edge and therefore the pixels in the image which have its derivative value (amplitude) of the gray level intensity to be high, is considered to be an edge [3]. In spite of the vast usage of these filters in edge detection, one cannot get good results once we are dealing with the images with nonuniform lighting [8]. Usage of second-order derivative is one of the traditional approaches for edge detection that is rarely used; it is because the second-order derivatives are highly sensitive to noise. ...

In this paper an approach is presented for edge detection of noisy images that have been degraded by impulsive noise. It uses Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). Starting with, using the FIS with 12 simple rules is to identify the noisy pixels in order to perform the filtering operation only for the noisy pixels. Probable edge pixels in 4 main directions for filtered image are detected using fuzzy rules and then ACO is applied by assigning a higher pheromone value for the probable edge pixels rather than other pixels so that the ant’s movement toward edge pixels gets faster. Another factor is the influence of the heuristic information in the movement of any ant that is considered to be proportional to local change in intensity of each pixel in order to the possibility of movement of ants increased toward pixels that have more change in their local intensity. Finally, by using an intelligent thresholding technique which is provided by training a neural network, the edges from the final pheromone matrix are extracted. Experimental results are provided in order to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed approach

paper reports the evaluation of Fuzzy logic implemented on image, in MATLAB environment, used to implement different functions. In this paper, the in-built functions of MATLAB are implemented on image and the resultant images are displayed using different functions. Fuzzy inference system has been designed for four inputs, one output that tells whether the pixel under consideration is "low", "medium" or "high" pixel. Rule base comprises of eight rules, which classify the target pixel. The Type-1 Fuzzy Logic System Toolbox (T1FLS) is an environment for type-1 fuzzy logic inference system development. Tools that cover the different phases of the fuzzy system design process, from the initial description phase, to the final implementation phase, build the Toolbox. The Toolbox's best qualities are the capacity to develop complex systems and the flexibility that permits the user to extend the availability of functions for working with the use of type-1 fuzzy operators, fuzzy variables, type-1 membership functions, de-fuzzification methods and the evaluation of Type-1 Fuzzy Inference Systems.
