A measure of symmetry based on shape similarity
Hagit Zabrodsky, Bezalel Peleg, David Avnir · 2003
The authors view symmetry as a continuous feature, and define a continuous symmetry measure (CSM) of shapes. The general definition of symmetry measure allows a comparison of the amount of symmetry of different shapes and the amount of different symmetries of a single shape. Furthermore, the CSM is associated with the symmetric shape that is closest to the given one, enabling visual evaluation of the CSM.>
