Abstract

This paper describes a method for detecting and segmenting spherical features using the gradient angle transform. An analysis of the gradient angle for ideal spheres is presented, with a discussional of how this may be used to locate the boundaries of the sphere. The algorithms used by a program which detects and segments spherical features are then presented. The results of applying the programs to images with naturally-occurring spherical features are given.
