    Abstract

    Edge detection is an important phenomenon in computer vision. Edge detection is helpful in contour detection and thus helpful in obtaining the important information. Edge detection process heavily depends on chosen technique. Soft computing techniques are considered as powerful edge detection methods due to their adaptability. This paper presents a fuzzy logic based edge detection method where the quality of edges is controlled using sharpening guided filter and noise due to the sharpening is controlled using Gaussian filter. The accuracy of the method is judged using a variety of statistical measures. It has been found that by proper selecting the smoothening parameters a significant improvement in the detected edges can be obtained.
