A Retrieval Method for 3D CAD Assembly Models Using 3D Radon Transform and Spherical Harmonic Transform

摘要

We present a retrieval method for 3D CAD assemblies consisted of multiple components. The proposed method distinguishes not only shapes of 3D CAD assemblies but also layouts of their components. Similarity between two assemblies is computed from feature quantities of the components constituting the assemblies. In order to make the similarity robust to translation and rotation of an assembly in 3D space, we use the 3D Radon transform and the spherical harmonic transform. We show that this method has better retrieval precision and efficiency than targets for comparison by experimental evaluation.
