TL;DR
The invariants from second- and third-order moments are derived and shown to be complete and to be invariant under general affine transformation and used for recognition of affine-deformed objects.
Abstract
The paper deals with moment invariants, which are invariant under general affine transformation and may be used for recognition of affine-deformed objects. Our approach is based on the theory of algebraic invariants. The invariants from second- and third-order moments are derived and shown to be complete. The paper is a significant extension and generalization of recent works. Several numerical experiments dealing with pattern recognition by means of the affiné moment invariants as the features are described.

It is shown that recognition of geometrical patterns and alphabetical characters independently of position, size and orientation can be accomplished and it is indicated that generalization is possible to include invariance with parallel projection.

An experimental system is described in which certain features called moment invariants are extracted from binary television images and are used for automatic classification of aircraft types from optical images, exhibiting a significantly lower error rate than human observers.

This paper proves that SV feature vector has some important properties of algebraic and geometric invariance, and insensitiveness to noise, and these properties are very useful for the description and recognition of images.

The derivation of moment equations and a method of moment measurement are described and a threshold sequence and decision rules are developed and implemented in the matching of radar to optical images using a hierarchical search technique with the invariant moments as similarity measures.

Invariants that correctly take into account the effect of change in scale and illumination are described and an example using two images with arbitrary shift, rotation, scale and contrast change is provided.

Experiments with synthetic and real boundaries show that estimates closer to the true values of Fourier descriptors of complete boundaries are obtained and classification experiments performed using real boundaries indicate that reasonable classification accuracies are obtained even when 20-30 percent of the data is missing.

134 Citations1991Bingcheng Li, Jun Shen
An iterative algorithm is proposed for moment calculation which needs no multiplications, and the number of additions needed is reduced to O ( N ), which shows that the computational complexity is significantly reduced.

A simple iterative algorithm is proposed for the computation of moments from a polygonal approximation of the boundary that can be applied to compute the most popular geometric moments as well as other types of moments like Legendre, Zernike, rotational and complex moments.

The development of algorithms for the machine recognition of optically captured Arabic characters and their isolation from the printed text and an algorithm for separation of individual characters are discussed.
