Abstract :
Line equation in Cartesian space can be mapped conformally to log-polar. But many the applications of log-polar mapping are using only the peripheral region. This paper presents a method of a Hough transform for a log-polar mapped edge image that includes both foveal and peripheral visual information. It is shown that this method achieves a good performance for line detection on the log-polar space.
