A Study on Curvature Scale Space

Sai Anand.C, Tamilarasan.M, Arjun.P

Advancement in digital technologies have resulted in large amount of images. Hence there a huge demand in retrieving desired images. In order to retrieve an image, the image has to be described or represented by certain features. Shape is an important visual feature of an image. Searching for images using shape features has been an important field of study. There are many shape representation and description techniques in the literature. In this paper, we review one of the important shape descriptor techniques named curvature scale space. The CSS extracts the shape feature of the image and represents them as curvature maxima points. We discuss implementation procedure of this technique, its variants and discuss their advantages and disadvantages.
