Abstract :
This paper describes a rose variety recognition project and proposes the modified Fourier descriptor. Based on the modified descriptor, a new measurement, angle measurement, is proposed for image shape analysis. We use it for rose flower shape analysis and the experimental results show that this measurement is quite efficient for image shape analysis.
