ART extension for description, indexing and retrieval of 3D objects

This paper presents a new three-dimensional shape descriptor: 3D angular radial transform. It is an extension of the 2D region based shape descriptor proposed by MPEG-7, the angular radial transform (ART). We propose to generalize the ART to index 3D models.
