Line detection using radon transform

Abstract EN

To extract features from digital images, it is useful to be able to find simple shapes (straight lines, circles, ellipses, etc.).

In order to achieve this goal, one can be able to detect a group of pixels that are on a straight line or a smooth curve.

That is what a Hough transform is supposed to do.

Since the Hough transform is a special case of Radon transform then line detection process is accomplished using Radon transform.

In this paper, software for line detection using Radon transform has been designed and implemented.

Then the implemented software is tested under many conditions and circumstances, the results are discussed, and many points are concluded from the results.
