Partial matching for real textured 3D objects using color cubic higher-order local auto-correlation features

Abstract

In recent years the need for the retrieval of real 3D objects is growing more and more. However, if the 3D models are obtained without the use of special equipment such as engineered environments or multi-camera systems, they are often incomplete, making retrieval difficult. On the other hand, real models often include rich texture information, which can compensate for the limited shape information. In this paper we present new 3D shape features which take into account an object's texture. We demonstrate the retrieval performance of these features on a dataset of real textured objects and a real color 3D scene.
