Abstract
A hierarchical scheme of feature-based model similarity measurement was proposed, named CSG_D2, in which both geometry similarity and topology similarity were applied. The features of 3D mechanical part were constructed by a series of primitive features with tree structure, as a form of constructive solid geometry (CSG) tree. The D2 shape distributions of these features were extracted for geometry similarity measurement, and the pose vector and non-disappeared proportion of each leaf node were gained for topology similarity measurement. Based on these, the dissimilarity between the query and the candidate was accessed by level-by-level CSG tree comparisons. With the adjustable weights, our scheme satisfies different comparison emphasis on the geometry or topology similarity. The assessment results from CSG_D2 demonstrate more discriminative than those from D2 in the analysis of precision-recall and similarity matrix. Finally, an experimental search engine is applied for mechanical parts reuse by using CSG_D2, which is convenient for the mechanical design process.
