3D Geon Classification

W. Xing, W. Liu and B. Yuan, "A Novel Integrated Scheme for Extracting Superquadric-based Geons from 3D data," in Proc. of ICSP'04, 2004.

To my knowledge, this paper is the first paper to try to implement Geon Theory, even though this is just about Geon classification. They build up a superquadric-based model for 3D object data and optimize the parameters. And then they apply SVM to the extracted features from the parameters of the model to classify the object into geon classes.

This is not about 2D image but 3D data. And this makes a model for each 3D data and extract some features from the model parameters, which might be rotation and transition invariant. This does not sound natural and not a visual recognition.
