Hough Transform

The Hough transform is a general technique that allows to detect the flat curves in binary images [Gon93]. The current version of Intel IPP implements the following:

  • Detection of the straight lines that are defined by the parametric equation:

    r = x*cos(Θ) + y*sin(Θ), where r and Θ are the length and angle from the origin of a normal to the line, respectively.

  • Detection of lines using the probabilistic Hough transform algorithm [Matas00].
