    Neuro-inspired edge feature fusion using Choquet integrals
    (Elsevier, 2021) Marco Detchart, Cedric; Lucca, Giancarlo; López Molina, Carlos; Miguel Turullols, Laura de; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    It is known that the human visual system performs a hierarchical information process in which early vision cues (or primitives) are fused in the visual cortex to compose complex shapes and descriptors. While different aspects of the process have been extensively studied, such as lens adaptation or feature detection, some other aspects, such as feature fusion, have been mostly left aside. In this work, we elaborate on the fusion of early vision primitives using generalizations of the Choquet integral, and novel aggregation operators that have been extensively studied in recent years. We propose to use generalizations of the Choquet integral to sensibly fuse elementary edge cues, in an attempt to model the behaviour of neurons in the early visual cortex. Our proposal leads to a fully-framed edge detection algorithm whose performance is put to the test in state-of-the-art edge detection datasets.

    Systematic review of aggregation functions applied to image edge detection
    (MDPI, 2023) Amorim, Miqueias; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Borges, Eduardo N.; Dalmazo, Bruno L.; Marco Detchart, Cedric; Lucca, Giancarlo; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika
    Edge detection is a crucial process in numerous stages of computer vision. This field of study has recently gained momentum due to its importance in various applications. The uncertainty, among other characteristics of images, makes it difficult to accurately determine the edge of objects. Furthermore, even the definition of an edge is vague as an edge can be considered as the maximum boundary between two regions with different properties. Given the advancement of research in image discontinuity detection, especially using aggregation and pre-aggregation functions, and the lack of systematic literature reviews on this topic, this paper aims to gather and synthesize the current state of the art of this topic. To achieve this, this paper presents a systematic review of the literature, which selected 24 papers filtered from 428 articles found in computer databases in the last seven years. It was possible to synthesize important related information, which was grouped into three approaches: (i) based on both multiple descriptor extraction and data aggregation, (ii) based on both the aggregation of distance functions and fuzzy C-means, and (iii) based on fuzzy theory, namely type-2 fuzzy and neutrosophic sets. As a conclusion, this review provides interesting gaps that can be explored in future work.

    Ordered directional monotonicity in the construction of edge detectors
    (Elsevier, 2021) Marco Detchart, Cedric; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Fernández Fernández, Francisco Javier; Mesiar, Radko; Lafuente López, Julio; Barrenechea Tartas, Edurne; Pintor Borobia, Jesús María; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Ingeniería
    In this paper we provide a specific construction method of ordered directionally monotone functions. We show that the functions obtained with this construction method can be used to build edge detectors for grayscale images. We compare the results of these detectors to those obtained with some other ones that are widely used in the literature. Finally, we show how a consensus edge detector can be built improving the results obtained both by our proposal and by those in the literature when applied individually.
