HoughVG:Hough Transform Toolbox for Straight-Line Detection and Fingerprint Recognition
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper presents HoughVG (Hough transform on Virtual Grid), a toolbox that improves on the Hough transform method, originally developed in 1962, by optimizing it for straight line detection and fingerprint recognition. Drawing on innovative approaches such as the rectangular, triangular, hexagonal and octagonal Hough transforms, as well as the generalized Hough transform, HoughVG significantly improves detection accuracy and processing speed. The toolbox is designed with a modular architecture, offering both sequential and parallelized functions. HoughVG’s test results indicate its potential impact on various fields, from academic research to industrial applications, while taking into account the limitations associated with pattern detection and parameter tuning. • HoughVG (Hough transform on Virtual Grid) is a toolbox that enhances Hough transform. • Toolbox uses different Hough transforms:Hexagonal, Octagonal, Rectangular, Triangular • Toolbox takes into account straight line detection and fingerprint recognition. • Toolbox allows to choose sequential or parallelized functions. • Toolbox is applicable in robotics, medical imaging, security, biometrics.
