Computer vision is a research field in which images are the main object of study. One of its category of problems is shape description. Object classification is one important example of applications using shape descriptors. Usually, these processes were performed on 2D images. With the large-scale development of new technologies and the affordable price of equipment that generates 3D images, computer vision has adapted to this new scenario, expanding the classic 2D methods to 3D. However, it is important to highlight that 2D methods are mostly dependent on the variation of illumination and color, while 3D sensors provide depth, structure/3D shape and topological information beyond color. Thus, different methods of shape descriptors and robu...
