canny — 2D segmentation op

Data kinds: imageregion

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "canny", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

HALCON equivalent: edges_image (the HALCON reference is a useful guide to its meaning and parameters)

*The figure is the real output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output (a non-image return value is shown as the value itself).*

Usage

Simplified Canny-style edge detection (returns a region). Mapped to HALCON's `edges_image` (Extract edges using Deriche, Lanser, Shen, or Canny filters.), but this is a simplified version (an approximation) that does not perform non-maximum suppression or hysteresis thresholding.

`a が事前平滑化のガウシアン σ を 0.5〜2.0 に、b がしきい値を 0.1〜0.6 に振る。ガウシアンでぼかした画像に Sobel 勾配強度を掛け、正規化した値を b` で二値化するだけ——本家 Canny の細線化(1画素幅への収束)は無いため、エッジは本来の Canny より太く、複数画素にまたがって残る。
