Abstract :
In this paper, our corner-based interest point detector, Robust Local Zernike Moment based Features (R-LZMF), which was proved to be scale, rotation and translation-invariant, is investigated for invariance against affine transformation, lighting and blurring. Furthermore, R-LZMF´s corner detection capability with Zernike moments of order 4 is theoretically explained in detail. Experimental results on the Inria Dataset show that R-LZMF outperforms SIFT, CenSurE, ORB, BRISK and competes with SURF in terms of repeatability for images under affine transformation and photometric deformation such as lighting and blurring.
