 +===== Detect edges =====
  
 +{{:​processing:​edge_detect.jpg|}}
 +
 +This function detects edges of objects using [[http://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Canny_edge_detector|Canny algorithm]]. This algorithm is considered to be the best to detect edges on noisy images. The algorithm consists of:
 +
 +  * Noise Reduction;
 +  * Gradient Calculation;​
 +  * Non-Maximum Suppression which chooses only the points of gradient local maximum in the direction of gradient vector to be pixels of the edges;
 +  * Threshold Analysis and final selection of the edges.
 +
 +In practice this algorithm works well with SPM images of rather big objects with distinct edges, for example, virus particles on mica surface:

 +
 +When the function is called up from [[меню_математика|Mathematics menu]] a setting window appears where threshold value and noise level must be specified as a fraction of 1.
