Abstract

Traditional sources of information for image-based computer vision algorithms have been points, lines, corners, and recently SIFT features (Lowe, 2004), which seem to represent at present the state of the art in feature definition. Alternatively, the present work explores the possibility of using tracked contours as informative features.
