Edge detection is a vital pre-processing step of many image analysis systems. In this paper, we intend to present a novel algorithm to automatically extract color image edge by integrating multi-dimensional gradient analysis and statistical analysis on local regions. Compared with previous gradient-based edge detection algorithms, our algorithm does not need to select an appropriate threshold against...
