Based on the shortcomings of the traditional edge detection algorithm easily lead to the brink of fracture and discontinuous, a new improved Pulse-coupled neural network (PCNN) is proposed to image segmentation and edge detection. Using Gaussian filter pre-processing, gray image is segmented into binary image. Based on this binary image, the edge detection is accomplished using improved PCNN, which can increase contrast of image and enhance the edge of image. Compared with correlative result using Canny operator and others in the existing references, simulation results show that our methods have both preferable results of gray image edge detection and fine applicability.
