This paper presents a new three-dimensional shape descriptor, called 3D angular radial transform. This descriptor is an extension of the 2D region base shape descriptor proposed b...
Similarity measuring is a key problem for 3D model retrieval. In this paper, we propose a novel shape descriptor "Thickness Histogram" (TH) by uniformly estimating thick...

We present a new approach for 3D model indexing and retrieval using 2D/3D shape descriptors based on silhouettes or depth-buffer images. To take into account the dispersion of inf...
—Keypoints on 3D surfaces are points that can be extracted repeatably over a wide range of 3D imaging conditions. They are used in many 3D shape processing applications; for exam...
We present a novel method for interactive retrieval of 3D shapes using physical objects. Our method is based on simple physical 3D interaction with a set of tangible blocks. As th...
