Key points

  • It uses the maxima in Hough space as keypoints to achieve stable feature-point detection on straight-line structures.
  • A one-dimensional radial descriptor mathematically guarantees rotation and translation invariance, which removes the need for separate orientation estimation.
  • It is training-free and outperforms line-segment matching methods based on LSD and LBD on every metric.
  • It runs in real time at 16.5 ms total, and although the Hough transform takes most of the time, 7.7 ms, it can be improved with GPU acceleration.
  • It remains robust even on nearly textureless images with alpha equal to 0.95, finding more than 400 inlier matches.
