Abstract
The Hough (or Radon) transform in its classical form is used for identifying lines in binary images (Hough |7|, Deans |4|; Radon |8|). It can be interpreted as an evidence accumulation method. Its main advantage is that it is relatively insensitive to noise, even interrupted lines can be detected by means of it. Furthermore, it can be easily implemented on parallel computers.
