Pruning Process Influences on Recognition Rate of Skeletal Shapes

This paper describes effect of Skeleton pruning process on recognition shapes or objects, Pruning is accomplished by removing branches which is redundant or unnecessary branches , The removal of these small branches does not alter the shape information. It is still quite a challenging problem because of the lack of standard measurements for the importance or significance of a branch. A pruning technique is adopted to deal with the large amount of data that results in further improvement in recognition accuracy. Experimental results showed that our method can achieve good retrieval results .The moderate pruning ratio has improved the features of the shape and improved recognition accuracy.
