Abstract

This paper investigates the use of Gabor features in matching 2- and 3-D objects in photographic images, using a database of images of funeral monuments from English churches. The technique, which can be applied to large databases, allows an arbitrary patch of a reference image to be matched to patches of each database image at a range of scales and positions. We investigate the use of nonlinear preprocessing to reduce the influence of lighting and surface reflectance on the match results.
