Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleConvergent Tangent Estimator for Discrete Objects Based on Isothetic CoversYumnam Surajkanta, Shyamosree PalIn this article, we propose a tangent estimation method for discrete object based on isothetic covers. We introduce a concept of maximal isothetic straight segments as a maximal segment of isothetic covers that are linearly separable. A new tangent estimator is proposed as a function of maximal isothetic straight segments. Upper bound for the tangent estimator are derived and show … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 21 Apr 2020 · 6,892 accessesView PDFCite
