Study Notes
Finding Lines
- Two common ways of finding lines: bottom-up and top-down approaches
- The Canny edge detector and the Hough transform are mentioned as methods for finding lines, with the Hough transform being available in any imaging package
Bottom-Up Approach
- Involves creating contours from edge pixels and grouping them into higher-level features
- Problem associated with this approach: noise and gaps in edge pixels
Top-Down Approach
- Involves projection and matching
- Problem associated with this approach: outlier noise
Line Fitting
- Equation of a straight line typically represented by: y = ax + b
- Problem associated with finding parameters providing the best fit: overfitting
- Fit of the current solution measured by: residual sum of squares
- Main idea behind least squares line fitting: minimize the residual sum of squares
Least Squares Regression
- Model aims to: find the best-fitting line that minimizes the residual sum of squares
- Provides an equation for: the best-fitting line
Hough Transform
- Provides an equation for: the parameters of the best-fitting line
Line Representation
- Lines are typically plotted in: Hough space based on Cartesian coordinates
