the magnitude of the pixel intensity is set to zero. Two
specified threshold values are compared to gradient sizes, the
first is below the second. The gradients below the lower
threshold are removed, the gradients above the high
threshold high, and the pixels on the last border map are
shown. All the other gradients are marked as weak gradients
and pixels corresponding to them are taken into account in
the following steps.

    Due to its connection to a strong edge pixel of a weak
edge pixel induced by real edges, the weak pixel will be
marked as an edge and is only used in the final edge map if
it is the same as some pixel with a high gradient. We will
develop and implement an algorithm that only once takes
account of all the coordinates of the gradient map. The final
edge map then allows deciding which pixels are included.
The final edge map then allows deciding which pixels are
included. Figure 4 shows the image after edge detection.
