Abstract:

We discuss Hough Transform, some of its key properties, a scheme of fast and complete calculation of the Hough Transform (similar to the Fast Fourier Transform), and an efficient implementation of this scheme on SIMD processors. We also demonstrate an application of the Fast Hough Transform in computer vision by the example of an automatic page orientation detection unit incorporated in an intelligent character recognition system. Both 2D (scanner) and 3D (camera) cases of page acquisition are considered.
