چکیده

The drawbacks of the standard Hough transform (SHT) are the computational time spending and the large storage requirement. Moreover, the voting method of SHT affects accuracy of detection. In this paper, a new voting method is proposed to reduce the computation and storage requirements of SHT for circle detection. This method improves the efficiency of circle detection by letting each pixel only belong to one candidate of circle parameters. Synthetic images are used to show the capability of the proposed method.

Rolling Circle Amplification (RCA): an approach for quick detection and identification of fungal species

Conventional methods for fungal identification in the clinical laboratory rely on morphological andphysiological tests. These tests often need several days or weeks to complete and are frequentlyunspecific. Molecular identification mostly implies sequencing, which is relatively expensive andtime-consuming, as well as impractical for large numbers of isolates. The Rolling CircleAmplification app...

A New Modified Hough Transform Method for Circle Detection

The Hough transform is a powerful tool in image analysis, e.g. circle detection is a fundamental issue in image processing applications of industrial parts or tools. Because of its drawbacks, various modifications of the basic circle Hough transform (CHT) method have been suggested. This paper presents a modified method based on the basic CHT algorithm and using no trigonometric calculations in...

An improved approach for ranking the candidates in a voting system based on efficiency intervals

This paper proposes improvements and revisions to a recent approach in a voting system, and provides an effective approach with a stronger discriminate power. For this purpose, the advantage of a linear transformation is utilized to redene a previously used concept of virtual worst candidate, by incorporating the existing weight restrictions. Then, the best score of this virtual candidate is us...

Hough Transform for Opaque Circles Measured from Outside and Fuzzy Voting For and Against

Geometrical limitations on the voting process in the classical Hough transform resulting from that the detected objects are opaque to the applied means of measurement are considered. It is assumed that the measurements are made from one point, like in LIDAR scanning. The detected object is a circle and the two point elementary voting set forming its chord is considered. The first type of condit...

Automatic Optic Disc Center and Boundary Detection in Color Fundus Images

Accurately detection of retinal landmarks, like optic disc, is an important step in the computer aided diagnosis frameworks. This paper presents an efficient method for automatic detection of the optic disc’s center and estimating its boundary. The center and initial diameter of optic disc are estimated by employing an ANN classifier. The ANN classifier employs visual features of vessels and th...
