A Vision-Based Jig-Saw Puzzle Matching Method

In this paper, a novel method of jig-saw puzzle matching is proposed using a modifided boundary matching algorithm without a priori knowledge for the matched puzzle. Specifically, a boundary tracking algorithm is utilised to segment each puzzle from low-resolution image data. Segmented puzzle is described via corner point, angle and distance between two adjacent coner point, and convexity and/or concavity of corner point. Proposed algorithm is implemented and tested in IBM PC and PC version vision system, and applied successfully to real jig-saw puzzles.
