Scaling Results for the Variational Approach to Edge Detection

Abstract

In another paper the first author presented an asymptotic result concerning the Mumford-Shah functional. In this paper an algorithm is presented which implements the scaling suggested by the asymptotic results to obtain accurate localization of edges even when only large scale edges are being detected. An approximation to E is also considered and the implications of the asymptotic results to this functional are also examined.
