Realtime LEGO Brick Image Retrieval with Cellular Automata

We consider the realtime content-based image retrieval of LEGO bricks from a database of images of LEGO bricks. This seemingly simple problem contains a number of surprisingly the image signature, and corresponding feature set, and illus- trate cellular automaton-based methods for the whole feature extraction phase.
