while updating the de.po, I wondered whether "Canny edge detection" means "Cautious edge detection" or "Clever edge detection"?
Maybe a different word should be used unless it's totally unambiguous for native English speakers.
Cheers, Colin
Well, 'Canny' does mean clever in English, however I've typically only heard it applied to human cleverness, not machine cleverness, so it makes me wonder if it's being used in some special technical context. If not, then perhaps a more common term would be "Smart edge detection" or something?
