Finding Junctions Using the Image Gradient

Junctions are the intersection points of three or more intensity surfaces in an image. An analysis of zero crossings and the gradient near junctions demonstrates that gradient-based edge detection schemes fragment edges at junctions. This fragmentation is caused by the intrinsic pairing of zero...
