The figure 8 represents an image Lizard which has been submitted to six rotations from to in the image plane. The results on the figure 9 show clearly that the characterization with the feature vector is invariant to rotation in a robust way. According to the number of correct matches to be found, we are able to obtain more than 90 of correct matches in most of cases, whatever the rotation applied. To realize the matching, we have used the method of comparison vector described at section 4.1 and the relaxation technique introduced at section 4.2.
