subpixel-edges 0.1.1

Pure Python implementation of subpixel edge location algorithm based on partial area effect

subpixel-edges

A pure Python implementation of the subpixel edge location algorithm from https://doi.org/10.1016/j.imavis.2012.10.005

The reference implementation can be found on from https://it.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/48908-accurate-subpixel-edge-location

Installation

pip install subpixel-edges

Quick start

For a quick overview of the code functionalities, install the following packages first:

$ pip install subpixel-edges
$ pip install opencv-python
$ pip install matplotlib

Then go into the directory you want to use and copy the image you want to analyze (let's say lena.png). Now open a Python console and execute the following commands:

import cv2
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

from subpixel_edges import subpixel_edges

# (optional) 
help(subpixel_edges) 

img = cv2.imread("lena.png")
img_gray = (cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)).astype(float)
edges = subpixel_edges(img_gray, 25, 0, 2)

plt.imshow(img)
plt.quiver(edges.x, edges.y, edges.nx, -edges.ny, scale=40)
plt.show()
