Addition of 'Edge Drawing' and 'Edge Drawing Parameter Free' algorithms to skimage?

[Robin Wilson]

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of implementing the Edge Drawing algorithm 
(see http://ceng.anadolu.edu.tr/CV/EdgeDrawing/) in Python, and am just 
starting to implement the additions required to produce the Edge Drawing 
Parameter Free (http://ceng.anadolu.edu.tr/CV/EDPF/) algorithm too.

In summary, these are quite interesting and useful edge detection 
algorithms that use a 'joining the dots' approach, and so produce nicely 
connected edges. The Parameter Free version also seems to work remarkably 
well for an algorithm that doesn't require any parameters!

Would the addition of these algorithms to skimage be of interest?

The implementation isn't quite finished yet, and could do with some tidying 
(potentially with advice from some of the skimage maintainers), but it 
shouldn't be too long until they are in a fit state.

Cheers,

Robin
