A Non-symmetrical Method of Image Local-Difference Comparison for Ancient Impressions Dating
Abstract
In this article, we focus on the dating of images (impressions, ornamental letters) printed starting from the same stamp. This difficult task needs a good observation of the differences between the compared images. We present a method, based on a local adaptation of the Hausdorff distance, that evaluates locally the image differences. It allows the user to visualize these differences. A description of the pertinent differences for the dating allows us to evaluate our method visualization ability. Then our method is successfully compared to the existing method. Finally, a framework for a future automatic dating method is presented.
