    Description
    Noise level
    0 to 442
    [5]
    Specify the noise level for judging the presence/absence of an edge.
    The maximum and minimum values of color differences in the edge detection region are obtained and, if the difference is lower than the noise level, no edges will be detected. If the detection is affected by noise, increase this value.
    Noise width
    0 to 9999
    [0]
    Specify the noise width.
    When there are two edges higher than the edge level and the distance between them is less than the noise width, these two edges are treated as noise. If the detection is affected by noise, increase this value.
