ABSTRACT
The use of robust feature descriptors is now key for many 3D tasks such as 3D object recognition and surface alignment. Many descriptors have been proposed in literature which are based on a non-unique local Reference Frame and hence require the computation of multiple descriptions at each feature points. In this paper we show how to deploy a unique local Reference Frame to improve the accuracy and reduce the memory footprint of the well-known 3D Shape Context descriptor. We validate our proposal by means of an experimental analysis carried out on a large dataset of 3D scenes and addressing an object recognition scenario.

3D partial face matching using local shape descriptors
J-HGBU '11: Proceedings of the 2011 joint ACM workshop on Human gesture and behavior understandingIn this work, we propose and experiment an original solution to 3D face recognition that supports accurate face matching also in cases where just some parts of probe scans are available. In the proposed approach, distinguishing traits of the face are ...
3D binary signatures
ICVGIP '16: Proceedings of the Tenth Indian Conference on Computer Vision, Graphics and Image ProcessingIn this paper, we propose a novel binary descriptor for 3D point clouds. The proposed descriptor termed as 3D Binary Signature (3DBS) is motivated from the matching efficiency of the binary descriptors for 2D images. 3DBS describes keypoints from point ...
A Comprehensive Performance Evaluation of 3D Local Feature Descriptors
A number of 3D local feature descriptors have been proposed in the literature. It is however, unclear which descriptors are more appropriate for a particular application. A good descriptor should be descriptive, compact, and robust to a set of ...
