Abstract :
A model-matching scheme for three-dimensional object recognition on a fine-grained data parallel machine is described. The feature that is used for model matching is the vertex pair, introduced by J.L. Mundy et al. (1987). The transformation between the features in the three-dimensional model and the two-dimensional scene is described by an affine transformation, which is an approximation to the perspective transformation. Coarse-to-fine histogramming on an n-dimensional grid is used to compute the best transformation between the model and the scene. Performance results for an implementation on the Connection Machine are presented
