Abstract
A new approach of the Hough transform for the detection of ellipses is presented in this paper. In our algorithm, the search of a 5-D Hough domain is replaced with four 2-D Hough planes. One of the main differences between our proposed transform and other techniques is the approach to extract feature points in an image for the recognition. For the accumulation process in the Hough domain, an inherent property of our suggested algorithm is its capability to effect verification. Hence, significant improvement on the performance of the recognition is achieved. Furthermore, our proposed algorithm is applicable for the detection of both circular and elliptical objects concurrently. >

a Scale and Rotation Invariant Fast Image Mining for Shapes

TL;DR: A sample, fast and efficient process through Distance Mapping for CBIR is proposed, which increases the retrieval rate and also the speed of retrieval as no pre-scaling and rotation are required to register the shape.

A probabilistic Hough transform

TL;DR: It is shown that if just a small subset of the edge points in the image, selected at random, is used as input for the Hough Transform, the performance is often only slightly impaired, thus the execution time can be considerably shortened.

A dual plane variation of the Hough transform for detecting non-concentric circles of different radii

TL;DR: A technique has been developed which calculates intersection points of edge gradient vectors storing response weights in one plane and the product of weights and radii in another plane effectively eliminating the radius dimension of the parameter space.
