Edge Detection in Computer Vision Systems

These two videos introduce an approach to the detection of intensity changes, or edges, in an image, that combines image smoothing, differentiation, and feature detection. The first video provides an overview of the process and the second video describes the details of how the method is implemented in a computer vision system. The particular method introduced is especially relevant to understanding the early stages of processing in human vision.
