Circle Detection Program Using Hough Transform

This is a Hough transform program designed for circle detection in MATLAB. While primarily focused on circular shapes, the program's modular architecture allows extension to detect other geometric forms such as lines and ellipses. The implementation analyzes input images to identify circular patterns and outputs both the quantity and positional coordinates of detected circles. Key implementation details include: - Required preprocessing step: conversion of input images to grayscale format - Image enhancement algorithms to improve detection accuracy - Parametric Hough transform implementation for circle detection using (a, b, r) parameter space - Peak detection algorithms to identify candidate circles in Hough accumulator array The program has undergone comprehensive testing and demonstrates reliable performance across various image types. Users can confidently deploy it for computer vision applications. The codebase is structured to allow customization and optimization for specific use cases, including parameter adjustment for different circle sizes and detection sensitivity thresholds.
