MORSE is an object recognition system, based on geometric invariants
of 3D structures taken from a single 2D intensity view. The system
exploits the geometric constraints inherent in object classes such as
polyhedra, rotational symmetry, bi-lateral symmetry and extruded
surfaces. Invariants have been used in the past to index many of these
classes, but MORSE is designed to treat multi-class recognition in a
uniform system architecture. The class constraints are also used to
drive image feature extraction and grouping.
