Circular Object Detection Using a Modified Hough Transform
نویسندگان
چکیده
A practical modification of the Hough transform is proposed that improves the detection of low-contrast circular objects. The original circular Hough transform and its numerous modifications are discussed and compared in order to improve both the efficiency and computational complexity of the algorithm. Medical images are selected to verify the algorithm. In particular, the algorithm is applied to localize cell nuclei of cytological smears visualized using a phase contrast microscope.

Detection of Microaneurysms in Retinal Angiography Images Using the Circular Hough Transform
This paper presents an automated method for detecting microaneurysms in the retinal angiographic images by using image processing techniques. In the presented method, in order to fade or remove the pseudo images, first retinal images are pre-processed. Then microaneurysms are identified by circular Hough transform. In the existing methods of dete...

متن کاملObject Detection from Complex Background Image Using Circular Hough Transform
In this study we discuss about the method to detect the object from the complex background. Object detection and recognition in noisy and cluttered images is a challenging problem in computer vision. The goal of this project is to detect the object using few methods such as color processing and shape detection. Colour processing uses thresholding operation to eliminate the unrelated colour or o...
متن کاملA Novel Approach for Coin Identification using Eigenvalues of Covariance Matrix, Hough Transform and Raster Scan Algorithms
In this paper we present a new method for coin identification. The proposed method adopts a hybrid scheme using Eigenvalues of covariance matrix, Circular Hough Transform (CHT) and Bresenham’s circle algorithm. The statistical and geometrical properties of the small and large Eigenvalues of the covariance matrix of a set of edge pixels over a connected region of support are explored for the pur...
متن کاملDétection des panneaux de signalisation routière par accumulation bivariée
We present a real-time approach for circular and polygonal road signs detection in still images, regardless of their pose and orientation. Object detection is performed using a Hough like transform based on accumulation on pairs of points with their gradients. Circular and polygonal (non triangular) traffic signs are detected by the so-called Bilateral Chinese Transform BCT. Triangular traffic ...
