A correlation based technique for shift, scale, and rotation independent object identification

Abstract
The technique of template matching in the log-polar visibility (magnitude of Fourier transform in the logarithmic radius and azimuth plane) is proposed as a promising tool for many problems of isolated object recognition irrespective of its position, scale, and rotation. The properties of the log-polar visibility suggests the use of partial information to implement some forms of "reduced template matching". These techniques imply substantial reduction in the computational cost
