The phrase "applies an edge" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where one is discussing the application of a competitive advantage or a specific feature that enhances performance.
Example: "The new software applies an edge to our data analysis, allowing us to make faster decisions."
Alternatives: "provides an advantage" or "gives a competitive edge."
Briefly, the algorithm first applies an edge-detection algorithm to delineate the boundary of the breast and the pectoral muscle.
Moreover, we intend to evaluate the impact of training with additional synthetic edge orientations, using different kernel sizes and applying an edge thinning process to the output.
For generating an attenuation correction map by the emission-based method, we applied an edge detection technique [8] which is implemented in the scanner software [9].
There are two possible generic solutions for this problem: one is to apply an edge correction algorithm to plausibly simulate competition from the edge-side dependent on the structure (see (Biber [1996]); (Pommerening and Stoyan [2006]); (Pretzsch [2009]), p. 326 336).
Tour bus banter long behind them, Matt and Mike have applied an edge of maturity to the sentimentality of yesteryear.
For pixels that have sufficient brightness (experimental threshold above 30), we apply an edge linking method that connects the current pixel to adjacent pixels if formula (1) is satisfied.
When applying an edge detection algorithm to investigate cells for inhomogeneities in subcellular protein distributions, we found that in control cells XIAP was homogeneously distributed within the cytosol, whereas areas with slightly increased XIAP concentrations could be detected after TRAIL/CHX or STS treatment (Supplementary Figure 2A).
Mahmoud and Marshall applied an edge-guided morphological filter to medical images [23], demonstrating a superior response over other sharpening filter methods with respect to noise removal, edge sharpening and restoring fine image detail [24].
This condition is satisfied by applying an edge-swapping procedure during graph randomization.
Then, we applied an edge-linking method for all edge pixels repetitively in order to produce an edge.
Ms. Kilgore conceded that some of the material, like Jim Scott's "She Acts Like a Woman Should," which Monroe recorded in 1953, was "a little unliberated," but resisted applying an ironic edge.
