+\section{Introduction}
+
+\subsection{Motivations}
+
+Straight edge detection is a preliminary step of many image analysis
+processes. Therefore it is always an active reasearch topic centered
+on the quest of still faster, more accurate or more robust-to-noise
+methods.
+
+{\it TOWRITE : petit \'etat de l'art en r\'esumant IWCIA'09 et en ajoutant
+quelques id\'ees perso (Hough, local, ...).
+Parameter-space-based methods : robust to noise, well suited to
+supervided context \cite{EvenMalavaud00}.
+Most of works aim at reducing their time complexity. }
+
+These methods rarely provide a direct measure of the quality of the output
+edge, such as sharpness, connectivity or scattering. Some information may
+often be drawn from their specific context, for example through
+an analysis of the peak in a Hough transform accumulator, or ...
+
+In digital geometry, the notion of blurred segment \cite{Debled05,Buzer07}
+was introduced to cope with the image noise or other sources of
+imperfections from the real world.
+
+Our work aims at designing a flexible tool to detect such blurred segment
+in gray-level images for as well supervised as unsupervised contexts.
+We seek for user-friendly solutions with ideally no parameter to set,
+or at least quite few values with intuitive meaning to an end user.
+
+\subsection{Method overview and previous work}
+
+The method we propose is based on a first rough detection in a local area
+of the image either defined by the user in supervised context or blindly
+explored in automatic mode. The goal is to disclose the presence of an edge.
+Therefore, a simple test as the gradient maximal value is performed.
+
+In case of success, refinement steps are run through an exploration of
+the image in the direction of the detected edge.
+In order to prevent local disturbances, for instance the intersection with
+a sharper edge, all the local gradient maxima are successively tested,
+and the gradient orientation consistency is checked.
+
+We already designed and experimented an exploratory detector
+\cite{KerautretEven09}.
+
+Despite of good performances obtained compared
+to other methods from the literature, several drawbacks remained.
+At first, a fixed width value was set by the user according to the
+application requirements, and detected segments were embedded in that
+fixed tolerence whatever their dispersion be. When this dispersion is low,
+the blurred segment is free to shiff sidewards, or worst, to rotate, thus
+degrading the provided position and rotation measures.
+
+Then two refinement steps were arbitrarily run to cope with most of
+the tested data, uselessly when the first one was successfull.
+Beyond, there was no guarantee that this could treat all kinds
+of data. The search direction is fixed by the detected direction at the
+former step, and there is necessarily a limit on this direction
+accuracy - at least linked to the restricted directions encoded
+in a limited grid - so that other steps would have been necessary
+to deal with high resolution images.
+
+Our study relies only on the use of the image gradient, as it provides a
+good information on the signal dynamics, and hence the presence of edges.
+Trials were made to use also the intensity signal though expensive
+correlation techniques, but it was mostly successful for tracking objects
+with stable appearance such as metallic pipes \cite{AubryAl17}.
+
+Organisation of the paper : TO WRITE.

+% definition of the "\spnewtheorem" command.
+%
+% Usage:
+%
+%     \spnewtheorem{env_nam}{caption}[within]{cap_font}{body_font}
+% or  \spnewtheorem{env_nam}[numbered_like]{caption}{cap_font}{body_font}
+% or  \spnewtheorem*{env_nam}{caption}{cap_font}{body_font}
+%
+% New is "cap_font" and "body_font". It stands for
+% fontdefinition of the caption and the text itself.
+%
+% "\spnewtheorem*" gives a theorem without number.
+%
+% A defined spnewthoerem environment is used as described

+
+The fast track stage consists in building and extending a blurred segment
+$S_i$ based on the highest gradient points on each line of the directional
+scanner based on an input segment $AB$.
+
+Validity tests based on the length or sparsity of $S_i$ are applied to
+decide of the detection poursuit. In case of positive response, the
+position and direction of this initial blurred segment is extracted.
+
+The fine track stage consists on building and extending a blurred segment
+$S_f$ based on points that correspond to local maxima of the gradient,
+ranked by magnitude order, and with gradient direction close to a reference
+gradient direction at the segment first point.
+During that step a thinning procedure is run :
+the assigned width of the BS is progressively brought to
+the detected BS minimal width.
+
+The fine track output segment is finally filtered to remove artifacts
+and outliers, and a solution blurred segment $S_o$ is provided.
+
+\subsection{Implementation details}
+
+A directional scanner is encoded as an iterator that provides successively
+all the scan lines.

+\section{Base notions}
+
+\subsection{Blurred segment}
+
+Our work relies on the notion of digital straight line
+as classically defined in the digital geometry literature \cite{debled}.
+Only the 2-dimensional case is considered here.
+
+\begin{definition}
+A digital line $\cal D$ with integer parameters $(a,b,c,\nu)$ is the set
+of points $P(x,y)$ of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ that satisfy : $0 \leq ax + by - c < \nu$.
+\end{definition}
+
+The parameter $\nu$ is the width of the digital line.
+If $\nu = max (|a|, |b|)$, $\cal D$ is the narrowest 8-connected line
+and is called a naive line.
+
+\begin{definition}
+A blurred segment of width $\nu$ is a set ${\cal S}_\nu$ of points in
+$\mathbb{Z}^2$ that all belong to a digital line of width $\nu$.
+\end{definition}
+
+\begin{picture}(300,20)
+\framebox(300,20){Exemple de segment flou ? (\c ca va finir par lasser)}
+\end{picture}
+
+To construct a blurred segment we use a liner time algorithm based on the
+incremental growth of the convex hull of the input points using Melkman
+algorithm \cite{Melkman87}. Points are added while the convex hull width
+is less than the blurred segment assigned width.
+
+\subsection{Directional scan}
+
+A directional scan is a partition of a digital straight line ${\cal S}$,
+called the {\it scan strip}, into naive straight line segments ${\cal L}_i$,
+that are orthogonal to ${\cal S}$. The segments, called {\it scan lines}, are
+developed on each side of a central scan line ${\cal S}_0$, and labelled
+with their manhattan distance ($d_1 = |d_x| + |d_y|$) to ${\cal L}_0$ and
+a positive (resp.  negative) sign if their are on the left (resp. right)
+of ${\cal L}_0$.
+
+\begin{picture}(300,20)
+\framebox(300,20){Exemple de directional scan}
+\end{picture}
+
+The directional scan can be defined by its central scan line ${\cal L}_0$.
+If $A(x_A,y_A)$ and $B(x_B,y_B)$ are the end points of this scan line,
+the scan strip is defined by :
+
+\centerline{
+${\cal S}(A,B) = {\cal D}(a, b, c, \nu)$, with
+$\left\{ \begin{array}{l}
+a = x_B - x_A \\
+b = y_B - y_A \\
+\nu = 1 + |c_2 - c_1| \\
+c = min (c_1, c_2)
+\end{array} \right.$
+}
+\noindent
+where $c_1 = a\cdot x_A + b\cdot y_A$ and $c_2 = a\cdot x_B + b\cdot y_B$.
+
+The scan line $\cal{L}_i(A,B)$ is then defined by :
+
+\centerline{
+${\cal L}_i(A,B) = {\cal S}(A,B) \cap {\cal D}(a, b, c, \nu)$, with
+$\left\{ \begin{array}{l}
+a = y_B - y_A \\
+b = x_A - x_B \\
+\nu = max (|a|,|b|) \\
+c = a\cdot x_A + b\cdot y_A + i \cdot \nu
+\end{array} \right.$
+}
+
+The scan lines length is $d_\infty(AB)$ or $d_\infty(AB)-1$, where $d_\infty$
+is the chessboard distance ($d_\infty = max (|d_x|,|d_y|)$).
+In practice, this difference of length between scan lines is not a drawback,
+as the image bounds should also be processed anyway.
+
+The directional scan can also be defined by its central point $C$, its
+direction $\vec{D}$ and its width $w$. TO BE DEVELOPED.
+
+\subsection{Adaptive directional scan}
+
+Notions \`a d\'evelopper :
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Direction de scan
+\item Epaisseur de consigne du SF
+\item Largeur optimale du SF
+\end{itemize}
+
+Poser le pb : la direction est incompl\`etement estim\'ee, d'o\`u un risque
+de sortie de scan.
+\begin{picture}(300,20)
+\framebox(300,20){Illustration d'une sortie de scan avec les diff\'erentes
+\'epaisseurs en jeu}
+\end{picture}
+
+La direction du segment ne peut \^etre connue qu'a posteriori.
+
+La direction d'une droite discr\`ete s'affine au fur et \`a mesure de
+son d\'eveloppement. 
+Ainsi en va t-il des segments flous (a fortiori).
+
+Il faut donc r\'eactualiser la direction du scan.
+
+$N$ scans reste limit\'e.
+
+D'o\`u le scan adaptatif $\rightarrow$ r\'eorientation de $\cal S$.
