The HT is a well-established algori

The HT is a well-established algorithm for locating and describing geometric object in an image. The idea behind the method is simple: parametric shapes in an image are detected by looking for accumulation points in the parameter space. If a particular shape is present in the image, then the mapping of all of its points into the parameter space must cluster around the parameter values which correspond to that shape.The Hough transform has been recognized as a robust technique for detecting multi-dimensional features in an image and estimating their parameters. It has many applications, as most manufactured parts contain feature boundaries, which can be described by regular curves or straight lines. Its main advantage is that it is tolerant of gaps in feature boundary descriptions and is relatively unaffected by noisy image.This approach maps distributed and disjoint elements of the image into a localized accumulation point, which is both a benefit and a drawback. Partially occluded shapes are still detected, on the evidence of their visible parts for example, all segments of the same circle contribute to the detection of that circle, regardless of the gaps between them. On the other hand, local information inherent in the points of the shape,such as adjacency, is lost - endpoints of circle arcs and line segments must be determined in a subsequent step.Computational load of the method increases rapidly with the number of parameters which define the detected shape. Lines have two parameters, circles three, and ellipses (circles viewed at an angle) have five. Hough method has been applied to all of these, but the ellipse is probably at its upper limit of practicality.
