Abstract

Fronts are elementary structures that separating domains of different steady states in reaction diffusion systems. The local dynamics of front structures have been investigated by a non-gradient reaction diffusion model of the FitzHugh-Nagumo type. It is found that stable and stationary fronts can be extracted under certain conditions. Based on the local dynamics of front structures, a novel method of image edge detection has been proposed in this paper when fronts are considered as edges of images.
