Highlights:

• We generalize polar harmonic transforms for pattern description/recognition.

• The generalization maintains beneficial properties of existing transforms.

• The completeness of the corresponding basis sets is proven.

• The numerical stability of the computation is discussed.

• The new generic transforms have superior performance to comparison methods.
