Comparison between advantages and disadvantages of the Canny edge detector.

NoAdvantageDisadvantage

1Suitable for simple and complex imagesComplex
2It detects true edge points with minimum errorsIt consumes a lot of time due to its complex computations
3It gives good localization, response, and is immune to a noisy environmentIt is difficult to implement and cannot reach the real-time response
4It detects a wide range of edges in medical images—
