LSD: a Line Segment Detector

LSD is a linear-time Line Segment Detector giving subpixel accurate results. It is designed to work on any digital image without parameter tuning. It controls its own number of false detections: On average, one false alarms is allowed per image. The method is based on Burns, Hanson, and Riseman'...

Summary:LSD is a linear-time Line Segment Detector giving subpixel accurate results. It is designed to work on any digital image without parameter tuning. It controls its own number of false detections: On average, one false alarms is allowed per image. The method is based on Burns, Hanson, and Riseman's method, and uses an a-contrario validation approach according to Desolneux, Moisan, and Morel's theory. The version described here includes some further improvement over the one described in the original article.
