Abstract

We present a new 3D shape descriptor based on conformal geometry. Our descriptor is invariant under non-rigid quasi-isometric transformations, such as pose changes of articulated models, and is both compact and efficient to compute. We demonstrate the performance of our descriptor on a database of watertight models, and show it is comparable with state-of-the-art descriptors.
