This work describes a new approach for the computation of 3D Fourier descriptors, which are used for characterization, classification, and recognition of 3D objects. The method starts with a polygonized surface which is mapped onto a unit sphere using an inflation algorithm, after which the polyhedron is expanded in spherical harmonic functions. Homogeneous distribution of the vertices is achieved by applying an iterative watershed algorithm to the surface graph.
