A Comparison of Shape Retrieval Using Fourier Descriptors and Short-Time Fourier Descriptors

چکیده
Shape is one of the primary features in Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Many shape representations and retrieval methods exist. However, most of those methods either do not well capture shape features or are difficult to do normalization (or matching). Among them, methods based Fourier descriptors (FDs) achieve both good representation and easy normalization. FDs is often blamed for not being able to locate local shape features. Methods are proposed in attempt to overcome this drawback. These methods include short-time Fourier transform and wavelet transform. In this paper, we make a study and a comparison of shape retrieval using FDs and short-time Fourier descriptors (SFDs). Query data is given to show the retrieval performance of this two descriptors on a standard database.

A new shape retrieval method using the Group delay of the Fourier descriptors
In this paper, we introduced a new way to analyze the shape using a new Fourier based descriptor, which is the smoothed derivative of the phase of the Fourier descriptors. It is extracted from the complex boundary of the shape, and is called the smoothed group delay (SGD). The usage of SGD on the Fourier phase descriptors, allows a compact representation of the shape boundaries which is robust ...

Shape is an essential visual feature of an image and it is widely used to describe image content in image classification and retrieval. In this paper, two new Fourier-based approaches for contour-based shape description are presented. These approaches present Fourier descriptors in multiple scales, which improves the shape classification and retrieval accuracy. The proposed methods outperform o...

متن کاملA comparative study of curvature scale space and Fourier descriptors for shape-based image retrieval
Contour shape descriptors are among the important shape description methods. Fourier descriptors (FD) and curvature scale space descriptors (CSSD) are widely used as contour shape descriptors for image retrieval in the literature. In MPEG-7, CSSD has been proposed as one of the contour-based shape descriptors. However, no comprehensive comparison has been made between these two shape descriptor...
