Abstract

An orthogonal polynomials based maximizing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) scheme for edge detection in 2-D color image is proposed in this paper. The proposed framework takes into account not only the spatial interaction within each of the three color planes (R, G, B) but also the interaction between the color planes. The edge detected output by the proposed scheme is also compared with two existing color edge detection schemes.
