Abstract

A new method is proposed for fast and accurate computation of Zernike moments. This method presents a novel formula for computing exact Zernike moments by using exact complex moments where the exact values of complex moments are computed by mathematical integration of the monomials over digital image pixels. The proposed method is applicable to compute the full set of Zernike moments as well as the subsets of individual order, repetition and an individual moment. A comparison with other conventional methods is performed. The results show the superiority of the proposed method.
