Abstract
Deconstructing an image based upon it parts poses a challenge to image analysis that may be solved using adaptive algorithms. The presence of occlusion or image rotation makes template matching difficult. Image segmentation techniques can be used to discriminate between objects via feature synthesis using deformable templates. This paper describes modifications to existing techniques commonly used to do real-time image segmentation for efficient hardware implementation. Edge detection and edge direction finding techniques may be used within the context of deformable templates for real-time automatic target recognition and tracking.

A Computational Approach to Edge Detection

TL;DR: There is a natural uncertainty principle between detection and localization performance, which are the two main goals, and with this principle a single operator shape is derived which is optimal at any scale.

Object matching using deformable templates

TL;DR: A Bayesian scheme, which is based on prior knowledge and the edge information in the input image, is employed to find a match between the deformed template and objects in the image and computational efficiency is achieved via a coarse-to-fine implementation of the matching algorithm.
