Abstract

Geometric matching algorithms and geometric representations are examined for point sets, curves, surfaces, volumes, and their space-time trajectories. The author focuses mainly on general-purpose techniques. Geometric matching benefits greatly from taking advantage of symmetries and special features, e.g. dihedral edges and circles or any three reliably identifiable feature points. Volume matching and representation techniques are also presented. Texture and fractal representations are briefly described.>
