MATLAB Code Implementation for Edge Linking

This program implements edge linking to connect edge points along contour lines. It efficiently processes various types of edge points including straight lines, curves, and closed contours. The algorithm analyzes the positional relationships and characteristics of edge points on contour lines to determine optimal connection strategies. Key implementation aspects include: utilizing proximity-based linking algorithms for adjacent edge points, implementing curvature analysis for smooth curve connections, and applying contour closure detection for complete boundary formation. The code features adjustable parameters such as connection thresholds and smoothing factors to accommodate different edge linking scenarios in image processing and computer vision applications. The program employs MATLAB's morphological operations and spatial filtering functions to enhance edge connectivity precision. Overall, this implementation serves as a practical tool for edge linking tasks in digital image processing workflows.
