The aim of this work was to develop a simple and fast yet robust algorithm for segmentation of objects in log-polar space. Assuming that some interesting parts of an image are selected by fixation of point of attention, pixels located close to fixation points are transformed to a log-polar space, then edge detection is performed. As a final step, detected edges are processed in a specific manner, which should lead to obtain boundaries of objects. After some smoothing, the detected boundaries are transformed back to a Cartesian space and are superimposed on an original image in order to show results of segmentation.
