A Normalization Method of Moment Invariants for 3D Objects on Different Manifolds

摘要

3D objects can be stored in computer of different describing ways, such as point set, polyline, polygonal surface and Euclidean distance map. Moment invariants of different orders may have the different magnitude. A method for normalizing moments of 3D objects is proposed, which can set the values of moments of different orders roughly in the same range and be applied to different 3D data formats universally. Then accurate computation of moments for several objects is presented and experiments show that this kind of normalization is very useful for moment invariants in 3D objects analysis and recognition.
