  2. Line detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_detection

    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 ...

  3. Smallest-circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallest-circle_problem

    The algorithm selects one point p randomly and uniformly from P, and recursively finds the minimal circle containing P – {p}, i.e. all of the other points in P except p. If the returned circle also encloses p, it is the minimal circle for the whole of P and is returned. Otherwise, point p must lie on the

  4. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineline_intersection

    The intersection point above is for the infinitely long lines defined by the points, rather than the line segments between the points, and can produce an intersection point not contained in either of the two line segments. In order to find the position of the intersection in respect to the line segments, we can define lines L 1 and L 2 in terms ...

  5. Iterative closest point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterative_Closest_Point

    In this work a statistical method based on the distance distribution is used to deal with outliers, occlusion, appearance, and disappearance, which enables subset-subset matching. There exist many ICP variants, [6] from which point-to-point and point-to-plane are the most popular. The latter usually performs better in structured environments.

  6. Linear interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_interpolation

    Given the two red points, the blue line is the linear interpolant between the points, and the value y at x may be found by linear interpolation. In mathematics, linear interpolation is a method of curve fitting using linear polynomials to construct new data points within the range of a discrete set of known data points.

  7. Line clipping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_clipping

    In computer graphics, line clipping is the process of removing lines or portions of lines outside an area of interest (a viewport or view volume). Typically, any part of a line which is outside of the viewing area is removed. There are two common algorithms for line clipping: Cohen–Sutherland and Liang–Barsky.

  8. Line–sphere intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line–sphere_intersection

    The three possible line-sphere intersections: 1. No intersection. 2. Point intersection. 3. Two point intersection. In analytic geometry, a line and a sphere can intersect in three ways: No intersection at all; Intersection in exactly one point; Intersection in two points.

  9. Line search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_search

    In optimization, line search is a basic iterative approach to find a local minimum of an objective function:. It first finds a descent direction along which the objective function f {\displaystyle f} will be reduced, and then computes a step size that determines how far x {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} } should move along that direction.
