Edge detection using Bayesian process convolutionsThis project describes a method for edge detection in images. We develop a Bayesian approach for edge detection, using a process convolution model. Our method has some advantages over the classical edge detector, Sobel operator. In particular, our Bayesian spatial detector works well for rich, but noisy, photos. We first demonstrate our approach with a small simulation study, then with a richer photograph. Finally, we show that the Bayesian edge detector performance gives considerable improvement over the Sobel operator performance for rich photos.
