ABSTRACT:
A method of analysing an image comprises performing a Hough transform on points in an image space to an n-dimensional Hough space, selecting points in the Hough space representing features in the image space, and analysing m of the n variables for the selected points, where m is less than n, for information about the features in the image space.
