Abstract(in English) We describe our shape-based 3D model retrieval method that is based on a browsing technique. With this method, users can retrieve the desired 3D model efficiently without preparing a query model. 3D models are arranged and classified in the virtual 3D space so that similar 3D models are placed near each other. This allows the user to easily grasp the area where the desired 3D model is located. After approaching the area, users can focus on the models in the area. So users can find the desired one efficiently. We also developed two functions to make our method more efficient. Firstly, our method needs to render a large number of 3D models at one time quickly, so we developed a high-speed rendering function. Secondly, we developed a function to make 3D models face the direction from which users can recognize the shape of the 3D models easily. In addition, we present the results of experiments to evaluate the retrieval efficiency, which shows that our method is four times as fast as a retrieval method using a query model.
