A circle of radius 23 drawn by the Bresenham algorithm. In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle. It is a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]

Hough transforms are techniques for object detection, a critical step in many implementations of computer vision, or data mining from images. Specifically, the Randomized Hough transform is a probabilistic variant to the classical Hough transform, and is commonly used to detect curves (straight line, circle, ellipse, etc.) [1] The basic idea of Hough transform (HT) is to implement a voting ...
The midpoint method computes + so that the red chord is approximately parallel to the tangent line at the midpoint (the green line). In numerical analysis , a branch of applied mathematics , the midpoint method is a one-step method for numerically solving the differential equation ,
The simplest algorithm for generating a representation of the Mandelbrot set is known as the "escape time" algorithm. A repeating calculation is performed for each x, y point in the plot area and based on the behavior of that calculation, a color is chosen for that pixel.
In geometry, the Steiner inellipse, [1] midpoint inellipse, or midpoint ellipse of a triangle is the unique ellipse inscribed in the triangle and tangent to the sides at their midpoints. It is an example of an inellipse .
A good description of what I think is the correct midpoint circle drawing algorithm (in its more general form for ellipses) is given in this paper: Jerry R. Van Aken: An Efficient Ellipse-Drawing Algorithm. IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications 4(9): 24-35 (1984) Note that use of the midpoint is an essential part of the method.
The dual to this quadratic program may also be formulated explicitly; [17] an algorithm of Lawson [18] can be described in this way as a primal dual algorithm. [ 16 ] Shamos and Hoey [ 7 ] proposed an O( n log n ) time algorithm for the problem based on the observation that the center of the smallest enclosing circle must be a vertex of the ...
