Abstract
The purpose of this project is to model edge detection using the Nomura et al's1 reaction-diffusion equation. Edge detection is an important visual processing tool for human sight, allowing for object detection and visual enhancement. This project explored the effects of inhibitor diffusion, Di, and threshold limits, a, on edge detection in this model. This project also discovered the limit of Nomura et al's1 model on the simultaneous detection of multiple edges in a step-wise intensity gradient and attempted to overcome that limitation.
