Abstract
Fourier descriptor and geometric moments are respectively the contour and region representations of objects in a binary image. In this paper, the authors reveal the relation between these two representations. The authors first generalize the Fourier descriptor to make it suitable for objects with more complex form. Then it is shown that the two representations are related by a simple linear transformation
