In this paper we propose a new perceptual edge detector based on anisotropic linear filtering and local maximization. The novelty of this approach resides in the mixing of ideas coming both from percep- tual grouping and directional recursive linear filtering. We obtain new edge operators enabling very precise detection of edge points which are involved in large structures. This detector has been tested successfully on various image types presenting difficult problems for classical edge detection methods.
