Corner detection is used in many computer vision applications that require fast and efficient feature matching. In addition, hexagonal pixel based images have been recently investigated for image capture and processing due to their ability to represent curved structures that are common in real images better than traditional rectangular pixel based images. Therefore, we present an approach to corner detection on hexagonal images and demonstrate that accuracy is comparable to well-known existing corner detectors applied to rectangular pixel based images.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
