Abstract :
This paper proposes a method to compute n-th order moments of objects in a binary image. The traditional method is order N2. The method consists of an edge following routine followed by a second recursive moment generation routine which operates on the edge information. The speedup was determined to be on the order of 3 to 6 times for a 256 by 256 pixel image
