This paper presents an overview of the GRUFF-I (Generic Recognition Using
Form, Function and Interaction) system, a nonpart-based approach to generic
object recognition which reasons about and generates plans for interaction
with three-dimensional (3D) shapes from the categories furniture and dishes.

"The purpose of the work described here is to demonstrate the
feasibility of defining an object category in terms of the functional properties
shared by all objects in the category. ... A complete system has been implemented
that takes the boundary surface description of a 3-D object as its input and
attempts to recognize whether the object belongs to the category chair ... This is,
to our knowledge the first (only) implemented system to explore the use of a purely
function-based definition of an object category ... to recognize 3-D objects."
