ABSTRACT:
A method of coarse representation of a visual object's shape for search/query/filtering applications uses a binding box that fully encompasses the object of interest within the image to extract a feature vector. Once the feature vector is available, matching based on specific queries may be performed using a search engine to compare the query number to an appropriate element of the feature vector, performing sorting to pick the best matches.
