Summary: | In this paper, we present a novel method for efficient 3D model comparison. The method is designed to match highly deformed models through capturing two types of information. First, we propose a feature point extraction algorithm, which is based on “Level Set Diagram”, to reliably capture the topological points of a general 3D model. These topological points represent the skeletal structure of the model. Second, we also capture both spatial and curvature information, which describes the global surface of a 3D model. This is different from traditional topological 3D matching methods that use only low-dimension local features. Our method can accurately distinguish different types of 3D models even if they have similar topology. By applying the bipartite graph matching technique, our method can achieve a high precision of 0.54 even at a recall rate of 1.0 as demonstrated in our experimental results. |
