A Computation Method for Symmetry

Abstract:

This paper puts forward a mathematical method to measure the symmetry property of two image elements—a specific instance of the Gestalt law of symmetry. The method makes an abstract of image elements by introducing vector points and experimental results show that the computation results is consistent with the human perception interpretation in most cases.
