I am using a sobel filter of size 3x3 to calculate the image derivative. Looking at some articles on the internet, it seems that kernels for sobel filter for size 5x5 and 7x7 are also common, but I am not able to find their kernel values.
Could someone please let me know the kernel values for sobel filter of size 5x5 and 7x7? Also, if someone could share a method to generate the kernel values, that will be much useful.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE 23-Apr-2018: it seems that the kernels defined in the link below are not true Sobel kernels (for 5x5 and above) - they may do a reasonable job of edge detection, but they should not be called Sobel kernels. See Daniel’s answer for a more accurate and comprehensive summary. (I will leave this answer here as (a) it is linked to from various places and (b) accepted answers can not easily be deleted.)
Google seems to turn up plenty of results, e.g.
http://rsbweb.nih.gov/nih-image/download/user-macros/slowsobel.macro suggests the following kernels for 3x3, 5x5, 7x7 and 9x9:
3x3:
1 0 -1
2 0 -2
1 0 -1
5x5:
2 1 0 -1 -2
3 2 0 -2 -3
4 3 0 -3 -4
3 2 0 -2 -3
2 1 0 -1 -2
7x7:
3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3
4 3 2 0 -2 -3 -4
5 4 3 0 -3 -4 -5
6 5 4 0 -4 -5 -6
5 4 3 0 -3 -4 -5
4 3 2 0 -2 -3 -4
3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3
9x9:
4 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3 -4
5 4 3 2 0 -2 -3 -4 -5
6 5 4 3 0 -3 -4 -5 -6
7 6 5 4 0 -4 -5 -6 -7
8 7 6 5 0 -5 -6 -7 -8
7 6 5 4 0 -4 -5 -6 -7
6 5 4 3 0 -3 -4 -5 -6
5 4 3 2 0 -2 -3 -4 -5
4 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3 -4
Other sources seem to give different definitions of the larger kernels. The Intel IPP library, for example, gives the 5x5 kernel as
1 2 0 -2 -1
4 8 0 -8 -4
6 12 0 -12 -6
4 8 0 -8 -4
1 2 0 -2 -1
Intuitively, this makes more sense to me because you're paying more attention to the elements closer to the centre. It also has a natural definition in terms of the 3x3 kernel which is easy to extend to generate larger kernels. That said, in my brief search I've found 3 different definitions of the 5x5 kernel - so I suspect that (as Paul says) the larger kernels are ad hoc, and so this is by no means the definitive answer.
The 3x3 kernel is the outer product of a smoothing kernel and a gradient kernel, in Matlab this is something like
sob3x3 = [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 0 -1]
the larger kernels can be defined by convolving the 3x3 kernel with another smoothing kernel
sob5x5 = conv2( [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 2 1], sob3x3 )
you can repeat the process to get progressively larger kernels
sob7x7 = conv2( [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 2 1], sob5x5 )
sob9x9 = conv2( [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 2 1], sob7x7 )
...
there are a lot of other ways of writing it, but I think this explains exactly what is happening best. Basically, you start off with a smoothing kernel in one direction and a finite differences estimate of the derivative in the other and then just apply smoothing until you get the kernel size you want.
Because it's just a series of convolutions, all the nice properties hold, (commutativity, associativity and so forth) which might be useful for your implementation. For example, you can trivially separate the 5x5 kernel into its smoothing and derivative components:
sob5x5 = conv([1 2 1],[1 2 1])' * conv([1 2 1],[-1 0 1])
Note that in order to be a "proper" derivative estimator, the 3x3 Sobel should be scaled by a factor of 1/8:
sob3x3 = 1/8 * [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 0 -1]
and each larger kernel needs to be scaled by an additional factor of 1/16 (because the smoothing kernels are not normalised):
sob5x5 = 1/16 * conv2( [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 2 1], sob3x3 )
sob7x7 = 1/16 * conv2( [ 1 2 1 ]' * [1 2 1], sob5x5 )
...
tl;dr: skip down to section 'Examples'
To add another solution, expanding on this document (it's not particularly high quality, but it shows some usable graphics and matrices starting at the bottom of page 2).
What we're trying to do is estimate the local gradient of the image at position (x,y). The gradient is a vector made up of the components in x and y direction, gx and gy.
Now, imagine we want to approximate the gradient based on our pixel (x,y) and its neighbours as a kernel operation (3x3, 5x5, or whatever size).
We can approximate the gradient by summing over the projections of all neighbor-center pairs onto the gradient direction. (Sobel's kernel is just a particular method of weighting the different contributions, and so is Prewitt, basically).
This is the local image, central pixel (x,y) marked as 'o' (center)
a b c
d o f
g h i
Let's say we want the gradient in positive x direction. The unit vector in positive x-direction is (1,0) [I'll later use the convention that the positive y direction is DOWN, i.e. (0,1), and that (0,0) is top left of image).]
The vector from o to f ('of' for short) is (1,0). The gradient in direction 'of' is (f - o) / 1 (value of image at pixel here denoted f minus value at center o, divided by distance between those pixels). If we project the unit vector of that particular neighbor gradient onto our desired gradient direction (1,0) via a dot product we get 1. Here is a little table with the contributions of all neighbors, starting with the easier cases. Note that for diagonals, their distance is sqrt2, and the unit vectors in the diagonal directions are 1/sqrt2 * (+/-1, +/-1)
f: (f-o)/1 * 1
d: (d-o)/1 * -1 because (-1, 0) dot (1, 0) = -1
b: (b-o)/1 * 0 because (0, -1) dot (1, 0) = 0
h: (h-o)/1 * 0 (as per b)
a: (a-o)/sqrt2 * -1/sqrt2 distance is sqrt2, and 1/sqrt2*(-1,-1) dot (1,0) = -1/sqrt2
c: (c-o)/sqrt2 * +1/sqrt2 ...
g: (g-o)/sqrt2 * -1/sqrt2 ...
i: (i-o)/sqrt2 * +1/sqrt2 ...
edit for clarification: There are two factors of 1/sqrt(2) for the following reason:
We are interested in the contribution to the gradient in a specific direction (here x), so we need to project the directional gradient from the center pixel to the neighbor pixel onto the direction we are interested in. This is accomplished by taking the scalar product of the unit vectors in the respective directions, which introduces the first factor 1/L (here 1/sqrt(2) for the diagonals).
The gradient measures the infinitesimal change at a point, which we approximate by finite differences. In terms of a linear equation, m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). For this reason, the value difference from the center pixel to the neighbor pixel (y2-y1) has to be distributed over their distance (corresponds to x2-x1) in order to get the ascent units per distance unit. This yields a second factor of 1/L (here 1/sqrt(2) for the diagonals)
Ok, now we know the contributions. Let's simplify this expression by combining opposing pairs of pixel contributions. I'll start with d and f:
{(f-o)/1 * 1} + {(d-o)/1 * -1}
= f - o - (d - o)
= f - d
Now the first diagonal:
{(c-o)/sqrt2 * 1/sqrt2} + {(g-o)/sqrt2 * -1/sqrt2}
= (c - o)/2 - (g - o)/2
= (c - g)/2
The second diagonal contributes (i - a)/2. The perpendicular direction contributes zero. Note that all contributions from the central pixel 'o' vanish.
We have now calculated the contributions of all closest neighbours to the gradient in positive x-direction at pixel (x,y), so our total approximation of the gradient in x-direction is simply their sum:
gx(x,y) = f - d + (c - g)/2 + (i - a)/2
We can obtain the same result by using a convolution kernel where the coefficients are written in the place of the corresponding neighbor pixel:
-1/2 0 1/2
-1 0 1
-1/2 0 1/2
If you don't want to deal with fractions, you multiply this by 2 and get the well-known Sobel 3x3 kernel.
-1 0 1
G_x = -2 0 2
-1 0 1
The multiplication by two only serves to get convenient integers. The scaling of your output image is basically arbitrary, most of the time you normalize it to your image range, anyway (to get clearly visible results).
By the same reasoning as above, you get the kernel for the vertical gradient gy by projecting the neighbor contributions onto the unit vector in positive y direction (0,1)
-1 -2 -1
G_y = 0 0 0
1 2 1
If you want 5x5 or larger kernels, you only need to pay attention to the distances, e.g.
A B 2 B A
B C 1 C B
2 1 - 1 2
B C 1 C B
A B 2 B A
where
A = 2 * sqrt2
B = sqrt5
C = sqrt2.
If the length of the vector connecting any two pixels is L, the unit vector in that direction has a prefactor of 1/L. For this reason, the contributions of any pixel 'k' to (say) the x-gradient (1,0) can be simplified to "(value difference over squared distance) times (DotProduct of unnormalized direction vector 'ok' with gradient vector, e.g. (1,0) )"
gx_k = (k - o)/(pixel distance^2) ['ok' dot (1,0)].
Because the dot product of the connecting vector with the x unit vector selects the corresponding vector entry, the corresponding G_x kernel entry at position k is just
i / (i*i + j*j)
where i and j are the number of steps from the center pixel to the pixel k in x and y direction. In the above 3x3 calculation, the pixel 'a' would have i = -1 (1 to the left), j = -1 (1 to the top) and hence the 'a' kernel entry is -1 / (1 + 1) = -1/2.
The entries for the G_y kernel are
j/(i*i + j*j).
If I want integer values for my kernel, I follow these steps:
So in summary:
Gx_ij = i / (i*i + j*j)
Gy_ij = j / (i*i + j*j)
where i,j is position in the kernel counted from the center. Scale kernel entries as needed to obtain integer numbers (or at least close approximations).
These formulae hold for all kernel sizes.
-2/8 -1/5 0 1/5 2/8 -5 -4 0 4 5
-2/5 -1/2 0 1/2 2/5 -8 -10 0 10 8
G_x (5x5) -2/4 -1/1 0 1/1 2/4 (*20) = -10 -20 0 20 10
-2/5 -1/2 0 1/2 2/5 -8 -10 0 10 8
-2/8 -1/5 0 1/5 2/8 -5 -4 0 4 5
Note that the central 3x3 pixels of the 5x5 kernel in float notation are just the 3x3 kernel, i.e. larger kernels represent a continued approximation with additional but lower-weighted data. This continues on to larger kernel sizes:
-3/18 -2/13 -1/10 0 1/10 2/13 3/18
-3/13 -2/8 -1/5 0 1/5 2/8 3/13
-3/10 -2/5 -1/2 0 1/2 2/5 3/10
G_x (7x7) -3/9 -2/4 -1/1 0 1/1 2/4 3/9
-3/10 -2/5 -1/2 0 1/2 2/5 3/10
-3/13 -2/8 -1/5 0 1/5 2/8 3/13
-3/18 -2/13 -1/10 0 1/10 2/13 3/18
Exact integer representations become impractical at this point.
As far as I can tell (don't have access to the original paper), the "Sobel" part to this is properly weighting the contributions. The Prewitt solution can be obtained by leaving out the distance weighting and just entering i and j in the kernel as appropriate.
So we can approximate the x and y components of the image gradient (which is actually a vector, as stated in the very beginning). The gradient in any arbitrary direction alpha (measured mathematically positive, in this case clockwise since positive y is downward) can be obtained by projecting the gradient vector onto the alpha-gradient unit vector.
The alpha-unit vector is (cos alpha, sin alpha). For alpha = 0° you can obtain the result for gx, for alpha = 90° you get gy.
g_alpha = (alpha-unit vector) dot (gx, gy)
= (cos a, sin a) dot (gx, gy)
= cos a * gx + sin a * gy
If you bother to write down gx and gy as sums of neighbor contributions, you realize that you can group the resulting long expression by terms that apply to the same neighbor pixel, and then rewrite this as a single convolution kernel with entries
G_alpha_ij = (i * cos a + j * sin a)/(i*i + j*j)
If you want the closest integer approximation, follow the steps outlined above.
I quickly hacked an algorithm to generate a Sobel kernel of any odd size > 1, based on the examples given by @Paul R:
public static void CreateSobelKernel(int n, ref float[][] Kx, ref float[][] Ky)
{
int side = n * 2 + 3;
int halfSide = side / 2;
for (int i = 0; i < side; i++)
{
int k = (i <= halfSide) ? (halfSide + i) : (side + halfSide - i - 1);
for (int j = 0; j < side; j++)
{
if (j < halfSide)
Kx[i][j] = Ky[j][i] = j - k;
else if (j > halfSide)
Kx[i][j] = Ky[j][i] = k - (side - j - 1);
else
Kx[i][j] = Ky[j][i] = 0;
}
}
}
Hope it helps.
(This answer refers to the analysis given by @Daniel, above.)
Gx[i,j] = i / (i*i + j*j)
Gy[i,j] = j / (i*i + j*j)
This is an important result, and a better explanation than can be found in the original paper. It should be written up in Wikipedia, or somewhere, because it also seems superior to any other discussion of the issue available on the internet.
However, it is not actually true that integer-valued representations are impractical for filters of size greater than 5*5, as claimed. Using 64-bit integers, Sobel filter sizes up to 15*15 can be exactly expressed.
Here are the first four; the result should be divided by the "weight", so that the gradient of an image region such as the following, is normalized to a value of 1.

Here is a simple solution made with python 3 using numpy and the @Daniel answer.
def custom_sobel(shape, axis):
"""
shape must be odd: eg. (5,5)
axis is the direction, with 0 to positive x and 1 to positive y
"""
k = np.zeros(shape)
p = [(j,i) for j in range(shape[0])
for i in range(shape[1])
if not (i == (shape[1] -1)/2. and j == (shape[0] -1)/2.)]
for j, i in p:
j_ = int(j - (shape[0] -1)/2.)
i_ = int(i - (shape[1] -1)/2.)
k[j,i] = (i_ if axis==0 else j_)/float(i_*i_ + j_*j_)
return k
It returns the kernel (5,5) like this:
Sobel x:
[[-0.25 -0.2 0. 0.2 0.25]
[-0.4 -0.5 0. 0.5 0.4 ]
[-0.5 -1. 0. 1. 0.5 ]
[-0.4 -0.5 0. 0.5 0.4 ]
[-0.25 -0.2 0. 0.2 0.25]]
Sobel y:
[[-0.25 -0.4 -0.5 -0.4 -0.25]
[-0.2 -0.5 -1. -0.5 -0.2 ]
[ 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. ]
[ 0.2 0.5 1. 0.5 0.2 ]
[ 0.25 0.4 0.5 0.4 0.25]]
If anyone know a better way to do that in python, please let me know. I'm a newbie yet ;)
As Adam Bowen explained in his answer, the Sobel kernel is a combination of a smoothing along one axis, and a central difference derivative along the other axis:
sob3x3 = [1 2 1]' * [1 0 -1]
The smoothing adds regularization (reduces sensitivity to noise).
(I'm leaving out all factors 1/8 in this post, as did Sobel himself, meaning that the operator determines the derivative up to scaling. Also, * always means convolution in this post.)
Let's generalize this:
deriv_kernel = smoothing_kernel * d/dx
One of the properties of the convolution is that
d/dx f = d/dx * f
That is, convolving an image with the elemental derivative operator yields the derivative of the image. Noting also that the convolution is commutative,
deriv_kernel = d/dx * smoothing_kernel = d/dx smoothing_kernel
That is, the derivative kernel is the derivative of a smoothing kernel.
Note that applying such a kernel to an image by convolution:
image * deriv_kernel = image * smoothing_kernel * d/dx = d/dx (image * smoothing_kernel)
That is, with this generalized, idealized derivative kernel we can compute the true derivative of the smoothed image. This is of course not the case with the Sobel kernel, as it uses a central difference approximation to the derivative.
But choosing a better smoothing_kernel, this can be achieved. The Gaussian kernel is the ideal option here, as it offers the best compromise between compactness in the spatial domain (small kernel footprint) with compactness in the frequency domain (good smoothing). Furthermore, the Gaussian is perfectly isotropic and separable. Using a Gaussian derivative kernel yields the best possible regularized derivative operator.
Thus, if you are looking for a larger Sobel operator, because you need more regularization, use a Gaussian derivative operator instead.
Let's analyze the Sobel kernel a little bit more.
The smoothing kernel is triangular, with samples [1 2 1]. This is a triangular function, which, sampled, leads to those three values:
2 + x , if -2 < x < 0
h = { 2 , if x = 0
2 - x , if 0 < x < 2
Its derivative is:
1 , if -2 < x < 0
d/dx h = { 0 , if x = 0 (not really, but it's the sensible solution)
-1 , if 0 < x < 2
So, we can see that the central difference derivative approximation can be seen as a sampling of the analytical derivative of the same triangular function used for smoothing. Thus we have:
sob3x3 = [1 2 1]' * d/dx [1 2 1] = d/dx ( [1 2 1]' * [1 2 1] )
So, if you want to make this kernel larger, simply enlarge the smoothing kernel:
sob5x5 = d/dx ( [1 2 3 2 1]' * [1 2 3 2 1] ) = [1 2 3 2 1]' * [1 1 0 -1 -1]
sob7x7 = d/dx ( [1 2 3 4 3 2 1]' * [1 2 3 4 3 2 1] ) = [1 2 3 4 3 2 1]' * [1 1 1 0 -1 -1 -1]
This is quite different from the advice given by Adam Bowen, who suggests convolving the kernel with the 3-tab triangular kernel along each dimension: [1 2 1] * [1 2 1] = [1 4 6 4 1], and [1 2 1] * [1 0 -1] = [1 2 0 -2 -1]. Note that, due to the central limit theorem, convolving this triangular kernel with itself leads to a filter that approximates the Gaussian a little bit more. The larger the kernel we create by repeated convolutions with itself, the more we approximate this Gaussian. So, instead of using this method, you might as well directly sample the Gaussian function.
Daniel has a long post in which he suggests extending the Sobel kernel in yet another way. The shape of the smoothing kernel here diverges from the Gaussian approximation, I have not tried to study its properties.
Note that none of these three possible extensions of the Sobel kernel are actually Sobel kernels, since the Sobel kernel is explicitly a 3x3 kernel (see an historical note by Sobel about his operator, which he never actually published).
Note also that I'm not advocating the extended Sobel kernel derived here. Use Gaussian derivatives!
Thanks for all, I will try second variant by @Adam Bowen, take C# code for Sobel5x5, 7x7, 9x9... matrix generaion for this variant (maybe with bugs, if you find bug or can optimize code - write it there):
static void Main(string[] args)
{
float[,] Sobel3x3 = new float[,] {
{-1, 0, 1},
{-2, 0, 2},
{-1, 0, 1}};
float[,] Sobel5x5 = Conv2DforSobelOperator(Sobel3x3);
float[,] Sobel7x7 = Conv2DforSobelOperator(Sobel5x5);
Console.ReadKey();
}
public static float[,] Conv2DforSobelOperator(float[,] Kernel)
{
if (Kernel == null)
throw new Exception("Kernel = null");
if (Kernel.GetLength(0) != Kernel.GetLength(1))
throw new Exception("Kernel matrix must be Square matrix!");
float[,] BaseMatrix = new float[,] {
{1, 2, 1},
{2, 4, 2},
{1, 2, 1}};
int KernelSize = Kernel.GetLength(0);
int HalfKernelSize = KernelSize / 2;
int OutSize = KernelSize + 2;
if ((KernelSize & 1) == 0) // Kernel_Size must be: 3, 5, 7, 9 ...
throw new Exception("Kernel size must be odd (3x3, 5x5, 7x7...)");
float[,] Out = new float[OutSize, OutSize];
float[,] InMatrix = new float[OutSize, OutSize];
for (int x = 0; x < BaseMatrix.GetLength(0); x++)
for (int y = 0; y < BaseMatrix.GetLength(1); y++)
InMatrix[HalfKernelSize + x, HalfKernelSize + y] = BaseMatrix[x, y];
for (int x = 0; x < OutSize; x++)
for (int y = 0; y < OutSize; y++)
for (int Kx = 0; Kx < KernelSize; Kx++)
for (int Ky = 0; Ky < KernelSize; Ky++)
{
int X = x + Kx - HalfKernelSize;
int Y = y + Ky - HalfKernelSize;
if (X >= 0 && Y >= 0 && X < OutSize && Y < OutSize)
Out[x, y] += InMatrix[X, Y] * Kernel[KernelSize - 1 - Kx, KernelSize - 1 - Ky];
}
return Out;
}
Results (NormalMap) or it copy there, where this metod - №2, @Paul R metod - №1. Now I am using last, becouse it give more smooth result and it's easy to generate kernels with this code.
