Study on Shape Recognition Based on Contour

Article Preview

Abstract:

Shape is the inherence characteristic of an object in the image, and it is the important character used for the object recognition. So it is significant for object recognition based on shape. This paper presents a contour-based method of feature extraction and shape recognition. First the object contour is translated into a 1-D contour curve. Secondly the curve is smoothed to restrain the noise. The number of peaks of the curve is achieved as well as the areas which contained between adjacent peak-valley, then the latter is followed by Discrete Fourier Transformation (DFT). Then two kinds of features ate extracted which are invariant to translation, scaling and rotation transformations. By using the features, a two-stake recursive algorithm for recognition is proposed. Experimental results show that this method is simple and efficient.
