Abstract

In this paper, we present a new method for recognizing Chinese chess. Firstly, histogram equalization and Hough gradient transform is used to determining the location of chess center; Secondly, Log-Polar Transform is used to achieve rotation-invariant and scale-invariant after preprocessing; Thirdly, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) can achieve translation-invariant. A simple measurement is used to assess the similarity after horizontal and vertical projection. Experiment results have shown that the algorithm can effectively recognize all chesses.
