Abstract
A new idea, using chirplet as the staff to define fractal dimension, is proposed in this paper, based on self- similitude of knowing essence of things from collectivity to part, from macroscopy to microcosm, in fractal theory and chirplet transformation. Chirplet fractal dimension is defined as the sum of high-frequency values of decomposed signals. The edge of infrared image is detected through chirplet fractal dimension, experimental results show that this new algorithm is simple and effective to detect whole contour and detail information, and is better than other traditional operators.
