AbstractDetecting ellipses from images is a fundamental task in many computer vision applications. However, due to the complexity of real-world scenarios, it is still a challenge to detect ellipses accurately and efficiently. In this paper, we propose a novel method to tackle this problem based on the fast computation of convex hull and directed graph, which achieves promising results on both accuracy and efficiency. We use Depth-First-Search to extract branchfree curves after adaptive edge detection. Line segments are used to represent the curvature characteristic of the curves, followed by splitting at sharp corners and inflection points to attain smooth arcs. Then the convex hull is constructed, together with the distance, length, and direction constraints, to find co-elliptic arc pairs. Arcs and their connectivity are encoded into a sparse directed graph, and then ellipses are generated via a fast access of the adjacency list. Finally, salient ellipses are selected subject to strict verification and weighted clustering. Extensive experiments are conducted on eight real-world datasets (six publicly available and two built by ourselves), as well as five synthetic datasets. Our method achieves the overall highest F-measure with competitive speed compared to representative state-of-the-art methods.
