Title
A New Multi-Resolution Affine Invariant Planar Contour Descriptor
Abstract
In this paper, a novel affine invariant shape descriptor for planar contours is proposed. It is based on a multi-resolution representation of the contour. For each contour resolution, a shape signature is defined from the contour points and the initial contour centroid and points. Finally, Fourier descriptors are computed for each signature. The proposed descriptor is invariant to affine transformations. Experiments carried on the MPEG-7 coutour database and the Multiview Curve Dataset (MCD) show that our proposed descriptor outperforms other contour shape descriptors proposed in the literature.
