Abstract:
One of the main areas in image processing is line detection and recognition. Some
algorithms for line detection were introduced. However, these algorithms involve
expensive operations like floating-point arithmetic and matrix operations. In
addition, the number of iterations of these expensive operations is high. Such
operations increase the computational time significantly. In this paper, a line
recognition algorithm, which involves integer arithmetic only, is introduced. The
algorithm uses a formal approach to recognize a line within an image file.
