摘要
This paper provides a review of shape analysis methods. Shape analysis methods play an important role in systems for object recognition, matching, registration, and analysis. Research in shape analysis has been motivated, in part, by studies of human visual form perception systems. Several theories of visual form perception are briefly mentioned. Shape analysis methods are classified into several groups. Classification is determined according to the use of shape boundary or interior, and according to the type of result. An overview of the most representative methods is presented. (C) 1998 Pattern Recognition Society. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
