dc.description.abstract |
This thesis describes the use of Self-Organizing Maps in combination with unique curvature based feature combinations and various training data sets as a clustering function to describe free-form surfaces. Our descriptor was successfully used as the basis of techniques that segmented, indexed and retrieved free-form surfaces represented as triangulated meshes. | |
