Abstract

Image Skeletonization plays a very crucial role in image processing as it has been used in various applications such as pattern recognition, fingerprint analysis, Signature verification etc. Image skeletonization process generates unit pixel width skeletons. Present paper considers feed forward neural network approach for simulation of Zhang-Suen algorithm. Network parameters are chosen based on experimentation. Values of MSE, PSNR, and Execution time are calculated for Gurumukhi characters. Performance graphs have been plotted.
