Abstract

In this paper, we propose a filter-refinement scheme based on a new approach called Sorted Extended Gaussian Image histogram approach (SEGI) to address the problems of traditional EGI. Specifically, SEGI first constructs a 2D histogram based on the EGI histogram and the shell histogram. Then, SEGI extracts two kinds of descriptors from each 3D model: (i) the descriptor from the sorted histogram bins is used to perform approximate 3D model retrieval in the filter step, and (ii) the descriptor which records the relations between the histogram bins is used to refine the approximate results and obtain the final query results. The experiments show that SEGI outperforms most of state-of-art approaches (e.g., EGI, shell histogram) on the public Princeton Shape Benchmark.
