In previous works, graph-based methods for non-rigid 3D object retrieval, have shown high discriminative power and robustness, while geometry-based methods, have proven to be tolerant to noise and pose. In this work, we present a 3D object descriptor that combines the above advantages.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.5 [Computer Graphics]: Computational Geometry and Object Modeling-i.3.7 [Computer Graphics]: Three-Dimensional Graphics and RealismConTopo: Non-Rigid 3D Object Retrieval using Topological Information guided by Conformal Factors
