Shape Classification Using B-spline Approximation and Contour Based Shape Descriptors. |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
In this paper we propose to compare some of contour based shape descriptors like Fourier descriptors, Radial function and Fourier of Radial function after applying a global B-spline approximation to the contours. Applying global B-spline approximation we can smooth and reduce the number of points in the contours. We used this technique for classification of fossil species and especially Brachiopods. The fossils classification has a great importance in palaeontological studies. On the one hand, they make it possible to understand the biodiversity in its morphological dimension. On the other hand, they show the morphological transformations suffered during the biological evolution. We compared the descriptors using City block distance and the recognition rate to measure the discrimination of the descriptors. |
