Object recognizing in cluttered scenes remains a largely unsolved problem, especially when applying feature matching to cluttered scenes there are many feature mismatches between the scenes and models. We propose our Feature Fusion Information Statistics (FFIS) as the calculation framework for extracting salient information from a Local Surface Patch (LSP) by a Local Reference Frame (LRF). Our LRF is defined on each LSP by projecting the scatter matrix’s eigenvectors to a plane which is perpendicular to the normal of the LSP. Based on this, our FFIS descriptor of each LSP is calculated, for which we use the combined distribution of mesh and point information in a local domain. Finally, we evaluate the speed, robustness and descriptiveness of our FFIS with the state-of-the-art methods on several public benchmarks. Our experiments show that our FFIS is fast and obtains a more reliable matching rate than other approaches in cluttered situations
