Efficient contour-based shape representation and matching
2003
Proceedings of the 5th ACM SIGMM international workshop on Multimedia information retrieval - MIR '03
Preserved Fulltext
This paper presents an efficient method for calculating the similarity between 2D closed shape contours. The proposed algorithm is invariant to translation, scale change and rotation. ...
The contours are translation and scale-size normalized, and small sets of the most likely starting points for both shapes are extracted. ...
Well known methods for compact shape representation and matching of 2D contours include Fourier Descriptors (FD) [5] , Curvature Scale Space (CSS) [10] and approaches based on the classical Hausdorff ...

Encoding contour representation of shapes in this manner leads to efficiency gains over existing approaches such as structural shape representation and techniques that use discrete point-based flow vectors ...
Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the proposed shape representation and matching mechanism is effective, efficient and robust to different arbitrary and affine distortions. ...
Broadly speaking, these shape representation and matching techniques are classified into two classes: 1) contour-based that only exploit contour information and 2) region-based that incorporate all the ...
