1. An apparatus comprising:
- an input unit configured to receive as input at least one sample view of a 3D query object to be inputted; and
an object descriptor determining unit configured to generate at least one object representative image of the 3D query object from the at least one sample view and to determine a query object descriptor of the 3D query object from the at least one object representative image.

Abstract
Techniques for matching a 3D object are provided. In some embodiments, a 3D object retrieval apparatus includes an input unit configured to receive as input at least one sample view of a 3D query object to be inputted, and an object descriptor determining unit configured to generate at least one object representative image of the 3D query object from the at least one sample view and to determine a query object descriptor of the 3D query object from the at least one object representative image.

11. A method performed under the control of an object retrieval apparatus, the method comprising:
-
receiving at least one sample view of a 3D query object; generating at least one object representative image of the 3D query object based on the at least one sample view of the 3D query object; determining an image descriptor for each of the at least one object representative image; and determining a query object descriptor of the 3D query object from the respective image descriptor for each of the at least one object representative image. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable storage medium whose contents cause a processor to:
-
retrieve candidate object descriptors of at least one 3D candidate object, each of the candidate object descriptors being associated with at least one object representative image; compare the candidate object descriptors to obtain similarities therebetween; and classify the candidate object descriptors into at least one class based on the similarities. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving at least one sample view of a 3D query object; generating at least one object representative image of the 3D query object based on the at least one sample view of the 3D query object; determining an image descriptor for each of the at least one object representative image; and determining a query object descriptor of the 3D query object from the image descriptors.

23. A method performed under the control of an object retrieval apparatus, the method comprising:
-
receiving at least one sample view of a 3D query object through the use of an input unit; and providing an object descriptor determining unit to perform the operations of; generating at least one object representative image of the 3D query object based on the at least one sample view of the 3D query object, determining an image descriptor for each of the at least one object representative image, and determining a query object descriptor of the 3D query object from the respective image descriptor for each of the at least one object representative image.
