Detecting Skewed Symmetries
نویسنده
چکیده
Many surfaces of objects in our world are bounded by planar bilaterally symmetric gures. When these gures are imaged under orthographic projection a skewed symmetric contour results. In this paper a new fast, local method to recover skewed symmetries from curve segments is proposed. It can be applied to complete as well as to occluded contours. Furthermore, the skewed symmetry property is employed to overcome fragmentation of a contour during segmentation.

Robust detection of skewed symmetries by combining local and semi-local affine invariants
A$ne-invariant feature vector (Ip and Shen Image Vision Comput. 16 (2) (1998) 135}146), that captures both local and semi-local geometric features around each point of the object boundary is applied here for the detection of skewed symmetries. Based on the a$ne-invariant shape representation, the problem of detecting symmetry axes has been formulated as a problem of detecting lines, with known ...
متن کاملShape from Contour Using Symmetries
Kanade [1] proposed a heuristic for interpreting shape from contour. To apply his heuristic, skewed symmetries have to be found. In this paper, an algorithm for finding skewed symmetries in a planar point set is proposed. The method requires a simple rotation and midpoint finding, followed by a Hough transform. A variant of the Hough transform is reported. It is based on interpreting it as a ro...
متن کاملA Novel Approach For Detecting Symmetries in CSP Models
While several powerful methods exist for automatically detecting symmetries in instances of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), current methods for detecting symmetries in CSP models are limited to the kind of symmetries that can be inferred from the global constraints present in the model. Herein, a new approach for detecting symmetries in CSP models is presented. The approach is based on...
متن کاملSkewed Symmetry Detection Through Local Skewed Symmetries
We explore how global symmetry can be detected prior to segmentation and under noise and occlusion. The definition of local symmetries is extended to affine geometries by considering the tangents and curvatures of local structures, and a quantitative measure of local symmetry known as symmetricity is introduced, which is based on Mahalanobis distances from the tangent-curvature states of local ...
متن کاملSkewed Mirror Symmetry in the 3D Reconstruction of Polyhedral Models
We aim to reconstruct three-dimensional polyhedra from axonometric line drawings. Existence of mirror symmetry in polyhedra can assist the reconstruction process. We present a new approach for determining planes of mirror symmetry of such polyhedral objects based on prior detection of their planar faces and any axes of symmetry of these faces. The axes are obtained from skewed facial symmetries...
