Ship infrared image edge detection based on an improved adaptive Canny algorithm by Lisang Liu, Fenqiang Liang, Jishi Zheng, Dongwei He, Jing Huang

“…The contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization algorithm is adopted to enhance the infrared image, the morphological filter replaces the Gauss filter to smooth the image, and the OTSU algorithm is utilized to adjust the high and low thresholds dynamically. The experimental results show that the improved Canny algorithm, which can not only improve the contrast of the image and automatically adjust the threshold but also reduce the background sea clutter and false edges, is an effective edge detection method.…”
