  • Abstract
    The so called point diffusion technique is introduced. It allows one to quickly evaluate the similarity between two figures defined by “clouds” of points. The new technique is compared with widespread modal matching approaches, showing similar results with respect to the efficiency of the queries in an image database, and using sensibly less CPU-time
