To develop novel concepts in this area, researchers have employed powerful tools from both pure and applied mathematics. Recently, the use of fractional differential equations has gained popularity in practical applications. Moreover, symmetry is a critical concept in digital image processing that can significantly improve edge detection. Investing in symmetry-based techniques, such as the Hough transform and Gabor filter, can enhance the accuracy and robustness of edge detection algorithms. Additionally, CNNs are incredibly useful in leveraging symmetry for image edge detection by identifying symmetrical patterns for improved accuracy. As a result, symmetry reveals promising applications in enhancing image analysis tasks and improving edge detection accuracy. This article focuses on one of the practical aspects of research in computer vision, namely, edge determination in image segmentation for water-repellent images of insulators. The article proposes two general structures for creating fractional masks, which are then calculated using the Atangana\u2013Baleanu\u2013Caputo fractional integral. Numerical simulations are utilized to showcase the performance and effectiveness of the suggested designs. The simulations\u2019 outcomes reveal that the fractional masks proposed in the study exhibit superior accuracy and efficiency compared to various widely used masks documented in the literature. This is a significant achievement of this study, as it introduces new masks that have not been previously used in edge detection algorithms for water-repellent images of insulators. In addition, the computational cost of the suggested fractional masks is equivalent to that of traditional masks. The novel structures employed in this article can serve as suitable and efficient alternative masks for detecting image edges as opposed to the commonly used traditional kernels. Finally, this article sheds light on the potential of fractional differential equations in computer vision research and the benefits of developing new approaches to improve edge detection.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym15071418","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,14]],"date-time":"2023-07-14T08:35:47Z","timestamp":1689323747000},"page":"1418","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["On Edge Detection Algorithms for Water-Repellent Images of Insulators Taking into Account Efficient Approaches"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Yizhuo","family":"Ding","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer and Artificial Intelligence, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou 450001, China"}]},{"given":"Xiaofei","family":"Nan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer and Artificial Intelligence, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou 450001, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"110886","DOI":"10.1016\/j.measurement.2022.110886","article-title":"Denoising method of ground-penetrating radar signal based on independent component analysis with multifractal spectrum","volume":"192","author":"Li","year":"2022","journal-title":"Measurement"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"109727","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ymssp.2022.109727","article-title":"Dual-microphone active noise cancellation paved with Doppler assimilation for TADS","volume":"184","author":"Liu","year":"2023","journal-title":"Mech.
