Automatic Parameter Control for Experimental Evaluation of Vision Systems

The evaluation of vision systems is not possible without parameter control as incorrect parameter adjustment can cause performance losses that are more signiicant than the eeect of the component being tested. In this paper we present a model for the contour extraction process and derive from it a method for automatic parameter control. The method works with arbitrary edge detectors, edge types and noise types. Experimental data on the methods performance and its accuracy is given.
