Comparison of New Techniques of Representation for 3D Shape Data Base Retrieval

The recent development of retrieval techniques and advances in 3D shape representation has induced a large amount of research. This paper presents a methodology with three options to retrieve shapes in 3D data bases, based on mapping shapes in 1D using representative sequences, which are matched using Fast Dynamic Time Warping distance. The three options are compared through a performance measure showing being better than the ones in literature.
