This introduces some errors since it involves the re-sampling and re-quantifying of digital images, and leads to inaccuracy of classifier. In this paper, we present improved Zernike moments, with theory and experiments that show that the improved Zernike moments not only have better rotation invariance, but also have scale invariance. Invariance of the improved Zernike moments shows great improvement over previous methods.
