Abstract

We describe an image representation that uniquely encodes the information in a gray-scale image, decouples the effects of illumination, reflectance, and angle of incidence, and is invariant, within a linear shift, to perspective, position, orientation, and size of arbitrary planar forms. Then we provide a theoretical basis for applying this representation to achieve invariant form recognition.
