A novel fast algorithm of mono transition region determination with gray image

There is a transition region between objects and background in any gray image. Many valuable applications of image segmentation and edge detection based on transition region determination have been developed in recent years. But, the complexity of calculation for determining transition region is too high. It results in the very limitation of applications based on transition region. A new novel fast method for transition region determination is presented in this paper, which will reduce the complexity of calculation dramatically. Many experiments have showed that this algorithm is effective and correct and will lay a good foundation for applications based on transition region.
