% houghcircle - takes an edge map image, and performs the Hough transform
% for finding circles in the image.
%
% Usage: 
% h = houghcircle(edgeim, rmin, rmax)
%
% Arguments:
%	edgeim      - the edge map image to be transformed
%   rmin, rmax  - the minimum and maximum radius values
%                 of circles to search for
% Output:
%	h           - the Hough transform
