It has been shown that the information preserved by using fuzzy representation based on area coverage may be successfully utilized to improve precision and accuracy of several shape descriptors; geometric moments of a shape are among them. We propose to extend an existing binary shape matching method to take advantage of fuzzy object representation. The result of a synthetic test show that fuzzy representation yields smaller registration errors in average. A segmentation method is also presented to generate fuzzy segmentations of real images. The applicability of the proposed methods is demonstrated on real X-ray images of hip replacement implants. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.</p>1 aTanacs, Attila1 aDomokos, Csaba1 aSladoje, Nataša1 aLindblad, Joakim1 aKato, Zoltan1 aSalberg, Arnt-Borre1 aHardeberg, Jon, Yngve1 aJenssen, Robert  uhttps://tisat.inf.u-szeged.hu/publication/recovering-affine-deformations-of-fuzzy-shapes
