Abstract

The Shape Context is not rotation-invariant as the gesture features, and the computational cost is expensive. In this paper, a novel method named as Shape Context based on the key points is proposed. The contour points with larger curvature are looked as key points, and the direction of the key point is described as x-axis direction, then Shape Context feature histogram is calculated. These make features translation, scaling and rotation invariant and reduce the time complexity. Meanwhile, the experiments show the method is effective and efficiency in the real-time system.
