The generalized Hough transform (GHT), introduced by Dana H. Ballard in 1981, is the modification of the Hough transform using the principle of template matching. [1] The Hough transform was initially developed to detect analytically defined shapes (e.g., line, circle, ellipse etc.). In these cases, we have knowledge of the shape and aim to ...
The Hough transform is a feature extraction technique used in image analysis, computer vision, pattern recognition, and digital image processing. [1] [2] The purpose of the technique is to find imperfect instances of objects within a certain class of shapes by a voting procedure.
Feature enhancement in an image (St Paul's Cathedral, London) using Phase Stretch Transform (PST). Left panel shows the original image and the right panel shows the detected features using PST. The phase stretch transform or PST is a physics-inspired computational approach to signal and image processing. One of its utilities is for feature ...
The Hough transform [3] can be used to detect lines and the output is a parametric description of the lines in an image, for example ρ = r cos(θ) + c sin(θ). [1] If there is a line in a row and column based image space, it can be defined ρ, the distance from the origin to the line along a perpendicular to the line, and θ, the angle of the perpendicular projection from the origin to the ...
Compare the edge strength of the current pixel with the edge strength of the pixel in the positive and negative gradient directions. If the edge strength of the current pixel is the largest compared to the other pixels in the mask with the same direction (e.g., a pixel that is pointing in the y-direction will be compared to the pixel above and ...
In image processing, a Robinson compass mask is a type of compass mask used for edge detection. It has eight major compass orientations, [1] each will extract the edges in respect to its direction. A combined use of compass masks of different directions could detect the edges from different angles.
Furthermore, using these initially detected points, the Hessian affine detector uses an iterative shape adaptation algorithm to compute the local affine transformation for each interest point. The implementation of this algorithm is almost identical to that of the Harris affine detector; however, the above mentioned Hessian measure replaces all ...
Deriche edge detector is an edge detection operator developed by Rachid Deriche in 1987. It is a multistep algorithm used to obtain an optimal result of edge detection in a discrete two-dimensional image. This algorithm is based on John F. Canny's work related to the edge detection (Canny's edge detector) and his criteria for optimal edge ...
