Abstract

In this paper, we present an area-based affine invariant representation of shapes and a point-correspondence algorithm which supports multi-scale similarity matching for shape-based retrieval. This method is affine invariant and stable against noise and shape deformations. Since the area-based representation scheme simultaneously captures both local and global affine invariant features of shapes, it makes the solution to the correspondence problem very robust.
