Summary :

Locating corner points from an edge detected image is very important in view of simplifying the post processing part of a system that utilizes a corner information. In this paper, we propose a robust geometrical approach for corner detection. Unlike classical corner detection methods, which idealize corners as junction points of two line segments, our approach considers the possibility of multiple line segments intersecting at a point. Moreover, junctions caused by two or more curved segments of different curvature are thought of as a corner point. The algorithm has been tested and proved competence with different types of images demonstrating its ability to detect and localize the corners in the image, though we found it to be best suited for images with relatively few curved segments. With the help of non-maximum response suppression technique our approach yields comparatively better result than any other method.
