| Summary: | Feature descriptors for 3-D images have recently gained considerable attention in application for games, virtual reality environment and solid modeling. Numerous research had been introduced for 3-D invariants of geometric moments, complex moments and Zernike moments. In this paper, we present a theoretical framework to derive translation and scale invariants for 3-D Legendre moments, by using indirect and direct methods. Indirect method generates 3-D Legendre invariants from the existing 3-D geometric moment invariants. Direct method, on the other hand, eliminates the displacement and scale factors from Legendre polynomials to generate translation and scale invariants. Experiment using 3-D binary images are carried out to verify the proposed feature descriptors.
