A Fast Decision Technique for Hierarchical Hough Transform for Line Detection

Abstract

Many techniques have been proposed to speedup the performance of classic Hough Transform. These techniques are primarily based on converting the voting procedure to a hierarchy based voting method. These methods use approximate decision-making process. In this paper, we propose a fast decision making process that enhances the speed and reduces the space requirements. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is much faster than a similar Fast Hough Transform.
