Abstract :
Various types of moments have been used to recognize image patterns in a number of applications. The authors evaluate a number of moments and addresses some fundamental questions, such as image representation ability, noise sensitivity, and information redundancy. Moments considered include regular moments, Legendre moments, Zernike moments, pseudo-Zernike moments, rotational moments and complex moments. Properties of these moments are examined in detail, and the interrelationships among them are discussed. Both theoretical and experimental results are presented
