Abstract

Geometric pattern detection and recognition appears as a major task in various fields such as Computer Vision ([27]), Biometrics ([35]), Medical Image Processing ([29]), Classification of Anatomical Form ([7]) and more. In the last decade a new major application of 3D geometric pattern discovery has emerged in the rapidly developing field of Bioinformatics ([60]), which is dealing with the development of algorithms for Molecular Biology applications.
