Object Boundary Detection

Consider an image M that is processed with standard pixel level edge detection techniques.
Some detected edges correspond to the object boundary and others correspond to texture regions.
We would often like to be able to isolate the object boundary pixels, sometimes for its own sake and other times as a preprocessing step for some other task, such as object detection.
We created a lite version of the Berkeley Pb Edge Detector. I will explain my version of this in the following slides.
