The method is based on the recently proposed mesh-LBP framework [WBD15]. Compared to its depth-image counterpart, the mesh-LBP is distinguished by the following features: a) inherits the intrinsic advantages of mesh surface (e.g., preservation of the full geometry); b) does not require normalization; c) can accommodate partial matching. Experiments conducted with public 3D models with geometric texture showcase the superiority of the mesh-LBP descriptors in comparison with competitive methods.I.3.5 [Computer Graphics]Computational Geometry and Object ModelingCurvesurfacesolidand object representations10.2312/3dor.2015106191-94
