Abstract :
The use of grey-scale contours, and fingerprints derived from this, has recently been used to analyse images for object recognition. The processing of these data can take a number of different forms. This paper describes a method for using characteristic aspects of the fingerprint, and geometrical relationships between them, to reduce an image to a set of simple geometric features. These features allow for compact storage in a database and very fast scanning to create a short list of candidate matching objects.
