The system is flexible enough to handle with a single image of an object despite its rotation, translation and scale variations. The image content is divided in parts that are described with a combination of features based on geometrical and color properties. The idea behind the feature combination is to benefit from a fuzzy similarity computation that provides robustness and tolerance to the retrieval process. The features can be independently computed and the image parts can be easily indexed by using a table structure on every feature value. Finally a process inspired in the alignment strategies is used to check the coherence of the object parts found in a scene. Our work presents a system of easy implementation that uses an open set of features and can suit a wide variety of applications.", optnote="DAG;", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=776), last updated on Wed, 14 Dec 2011 09:37:06 +0100", isbn="978-3-540-72848-1", doi="10.1007/978-3-540-72849-8_5", file=":http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/BoL2007a.pdf:PDF" }
