Abstract:
Research has been performed investigating the use of moments for pattern recognition in recent years. The basic problem of the influence of discretization and noise on moment accuracy as object descriptors, has been barely investigated. In this paper, the detailed error analysis involved in the moment method is discussed. Several new techniques to increase the accuracy and efficiency of moment descriptor are proposed. We utilize these results for the problem of image reconstruction from the orthogonal Legendre moments computed from discrete and noisy data. The automatic selection of an optimal number of moments is also discussed.
