Abstract
The Hough transform is used to detect patterns in images. Its advantage is the ability to detect discontinuous patterns in noisy images. The drawback is its demand for a large amount of computing power. Efficient algorithms and their implementations in multiprocessor systems have been proposed to overcome the computational requirements. The ability to efficiently map two-dimensional (2D) images into 2D meshes makes the pyramid computer a very attractive candidate for implementation of image processing algorithms. Several implementations of the Hough transform in pyramid machines can be found in the literature. The implementations are geared towards the analysis of a single image. Moreover, the implementations do not consider the balancing of the computational load uniformly among the processor elements in the pyramid. The objective of this paper is to propose an efficient pipelined implementation of the Multiresolution Hough transform in a pyramid machine. The proposed implementation c...
