Abstract
Linear and Non-Linear Feature Extraction Algorithms for Lunar Images
Highlights
Craters are commonly found on the surface of planets, satellites, asteroids and other solar system bodies
Crater detected image is given as an input to ridges detection and the edges identified as craters are eliminated and processed to find ridges
This paper describes linear and non linear feature extraction using Lunar images, demonstrated using recent satellite data
Summary
Craters are commonly found on the surface of planets, satellites, asteroids and other solar system bodies. The number and size of the crater is used to identify age of the surface which has craters. The relative ages between the surfaces of different bodies can be identified. The crater is a bowl shaped depression created by collision or volcanic activities. Craters may have sharper and regular rims when they are younger and when the age of the crater increases regular rims leads to vague rims. The craters are a fundamental tool to determinate the geological age and history of a surface
