Abstract
One of approaches in pattern recognition is the use of fractal geometry. The property of the self-similarity of the fractals has been used as feature in several pattern recognition methods. In this paper we present a new fractal recognition method which we will use in recognition of 2D shapes. As fractal features we used Partitioned Iterated Function System (PIFS). From the PIFS code we extract mappings vectors and numbers of domain transformations used in fractal image compression. These vectors and numbers are later used as features in the recognition procedure using a normalized similarity measure. The effectiveness of our method is shown on two test databases. The first database was created by the author and the second one is MPEG7 CE-Shape-1PartB database.
