Spectral-based Methods for Edge Detection
Abstract
We present several spectral-data based techniques for detecting edges, jump
discontinuities, in one-dimensional data. In each technique, we make use
of
the Fourier coefficients of the data to produce a function that tends to
zero far from the jumps and to the values of the jumps at the jumps'
locations. Most of the results can be proved using elementary techniques
and provide beautiful examples of the applications of these techniques.
This is joint work with Professor Eitan Tadmor of the University of
Maryland.
