Abstract

It is shown that an index space can be a powerful tool for reducing the image-model match search by a factor of kG-3 , but only when accompanied by some mechanism, such as grouping, that prevents the system from having to consider all matches between image groups of size G and model groups of size G. It is also shown that if image groups are to index a single point at recognition time, then the index space must contain pointers to each model group over a 2-D sheet, and should therefore be 2G-4 dimensional. A simple indexing system has been implemented to demonstrate these concepts, and a series of experiments have been conducted to investigate the tradeoffs between space and time. They indicate that the speedups are achievable, but require a large amount of space
