In this paper, we propose a new partial curve matching method to find the candidate matches. In this method, the fragment contours are represented by their turning functions. The matching segments between two fragment contours are found by analyzing the difference curve between two turning functions directly. The performance of our method is illustrated with randomly shredded document fragments.}, altkeys = {zhu-zho-zha-hu-06-frag} }
