EDGE
Edge Detection
EDGE
is a C++ library which
defines some test functions in 1D, 2D and 3D for the detection of edges,
and uses GNUPLOT to display images of the functions.
In particular, we look at some simple functional examples in 1D,
2D, and 3D, that is, situations in which a formula is supplied so
that the value of a scalar quantity f() can be determined at any
point in the region. We are interested in examples in which the
quantity f() exhibits jumps. that is, sudden, sharp changes in value.

EDGE is available in
a C version and

a FORTRAN90 version and
a MATLAB version.
Related Data and Programs:
GNUPLOT,
C++ programs which
illustrate how a program can write data and command files
so that gnuplot can create plots of the program results.
IMAGE_EDGE,
a C++ library which
demonstrates a simple procedure for edge detection in images.
