HOT Curves for Modelling and Recognition of Smooth Curved 3D Objects

Abstract

Arbitrary smooth curved 3D shapes are represented by a discrete set of high-order tangent (HOT) curves, where a surface admits HOTs. These curves determine the structure of the image contours and its catastrophic changes, and there is a natural correspondence between some of them and monocular contour features such as inflections and bitangents. We present a method for automatically constructing the HOT curves from continuous sequences of video images and describe an approach to object recognition using viewpoint-dependent monocular image features as indices into a database of models and as a basis for pose estimation. We have implemented both of the methods, and present results obtained from real images.<<ETX>>
