Abstract
One of the most important human abilities is to recognize different objects. Recognition is defined as a procedure that involves perception and associates the information with certain memory. Computer vision and pattern recognition scientists and engineers develop computer systems to recognize objects in the real-world. However, in spite of significant advancements, 3D object recognition in the real-world with changing environmental conditions remains a challenging problem. Nevertheless, research in certain areas in this field, e.g. biometrics, shows promising results [35].
