Abstract :
A method of representing the features of a polyhedral object based on probability density functions defined on observed features is presented. The measured lengths of the edges of a polyhedral object depend on the observation angle. The measured lengths of a combination of adjacent edges in an image have characteristic relationships and associated probabilities of observation. These facts are used to develop a decision scheme for identifying polyhedral objects. Results of experiments are also presented
