•A line is the set of
points (x, y) such that:
•y = mx + b
•For any
(x, y) there is a line in (m,b) space describing the lines through
this point. Just let (x,y)
be constants and m, b be unknowns.
•Each point gets to vote for each
line in the family; if there is a line that has lots of votes, that
should be the line passing through the points
