Abstract
The analysis and recognition of 2D shapes using the orthogonal complex AR model has been extended for the recognition of arbitrary 3D objects. A 3D object is placed at one of its stable orientation and sectioned into a fixed number of "slices" of equal thickness in such a way that the "slices" are parallel to the object's stable plane. The surface of an object can be represented by a sequence of these parallel 2D closed contours. A complex AR model is then fitted to each of these contours. An orthogonal estimator is implemented to determine the correct model order and to estimate the associated model parameters. The estimated AR model parameters, magnitude ratios and the relative centroid associated with each 2D contour are used as essential features for 3D object recognition. An algorithm with hierarchical structure for the recognition of 3D objects is derived based on matching the sequence of 2D contours. Simulation studies are included to show the effectiveness of different criteria being applied at different stages of the recognition process. Test results have shown that the proposed approach can provide a feasible and effective means for recognizing arbitrary 3D objects which can be self-occluded and have a number of stable orientation.
