METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROCESSING AND FOR SEARCHING FOR AN OBJECT BY SIGNALS CORRESPONDING TO IMAGES
First Claim
1. A method of representing an object appearing in an image or a sequence of images, by processing signals corresponding to the image, the method comprising deriving a plurality of co-ordinate values for peaks of the outline of the object in curvature scale space on the basis of the signals, wherein the method of deriving a curvature scale space representation involves using a binomial filter.
