Abstract: To improve the performance of infrared image edge detection,an edge detection algorithm based on morphology is proposed. This method improves the edge detection algorithm that only uses a single direction and fixed direction weights. It uses multi-directional structural elements to extract the edges of the image,and uses the direction adaptive weighted fusion method to obtain final results. Simulations show that the method can effectively suppress the noise in the image and make the extracted image edge more complete which improve the effect of infrared image edge detection.

Key words: edge detection, infrared image, morphology, adaptive weight
