A modified ant-based edge detector is presented. It is based on the distribution of ants on an image. Ants try to find possible edges by using a heuristic function based on 3x3 ideal edge structures. Visual comparisons show that the modified algorithm gives finer details and thinner edges at lesser computational times when compared to earlier ant-based approaches. When compared to standard edge detection methods, it provides finer details than others except Canny’s, with slightly more occurrence of broadening.
