Geometric hashing

Lamdan, Y., Woleson, H. J. Geometric Hashing a general and efficient model-based recognition scheme. 

Geometric hashing73 originated from the area of computer vision and was first applied to molecular docking problems by Fischer et al.74,75 In computer vision, the geometric hashing scheme was developed for the problem of recognizing (partially occluded) objects in camera scenes. In principle,...

As an alternative to completely enumerating all relative orientations, Fischer et al.52 reported the development of a computer-vision-based technique called geometric hashing. This scheme is conceptually similar to that utilized in the DOCK program53,74 which tries to find matches in the internal distances between spheres74 or shape-based site-points,53 which represent the surface features of the proteins. 

One approach, belonging to the first group of methods mentioned above, for performing searches using 3D templates is TESS (template search and superimposition) [67]. TESS is based on a geometrical hashing algorithm and allows...
