Abstract
A method is disclosed allowing digital 3D models to be indexed, searched, and compared, and to display the results in a 3D space. The method comprises four complementary parts: displaying, comparing/searching, face reconciliation, and ranking results. Each of these parts can fit in one another or be used independently. The implementation of a process for searching/comparing 3D models based on descriptors at least partly related to faces requires a face reconciliation process (pairing of faces between 3D models).
