Abstract

There are a number of methods that transform 2-D shapes into periodic 1-D signals so that faster recognition can be achieved. However, none of these methods are both noise-robust and scale invariant. In this paper, we propose a circular projection method for transforming 2-D shapes into periodic 1-D signals. We then apply a number of feature extraction methods to the 1-D signals. Our method is invariant to the translation, rotation and scaling of the 2-D shapes. Also, our method is robust to Gaussian white noise. In addition, it performs very well in terms of classification rates for a well-known shape dataset.
