Invariant Image Recognition Using Radial Jacobi Moment Invariants

Bin Jie Xiao, Jianfeng Ma, Jiangtao Cui · 2011

As orthogonal moments in the polar coordinate, radial orthogonal moments such as Zernike, pseudo-Zernike and orthogonal Fourier-Mellin moments have been successfully used in the field of pattern recognition. However, the scale and rotation invariant property of these moments has not been studied. In this paper, we present a generic approach based on Jacobi-Fourier moments for scale and rotation invariant analysis of radial orthogonal moments. It provides a fundamental mathematical tool for invariant analysis of the radial orthogonal moments since Jacobi-Fourier moments are the generic expressions of radial orthogonal moments. Experimental results show the efficiency and the robustness to noise of the proposed method for recognition tasks.
