This study aims to propose a new hybrid method for edge detection. This method is based on cellular learning automata (CLA) and stochastic cellular automata (SCA). In the first part of the proposed method, statistic features of the input image are hired to have primary edge detection. In the next step CLA and SCA are employed to amplify pixels situated on edge and castrate those pixels which are part of the image background. The simulation results are conducted to prove proposed method performance and these results suggest that the proposed method is more efficient in finding edges and outperforms the existing edge detection algorithms. %K Cellular Learning Automata %K Stochastic Cellular Automata %K Edge Detection %K Image Processing %K Statistic Feature %U http://www.oalib.com/paper/3131605
