• This paper adopts skeletonization approach to represent Chinese character and uses the resulting written strokes for optimized matching. We use shortest path method that represented by end node pair and junction node pair in the character for matching. This strategy is improved from the original shortest skeleton path matching by introducing the junction node as an extra feature in order to be able to represent singularity, non-singularity and looping characteristics for Chinese characters. Our result shows an effective representation and matching of the character by skeletonization and shortest path method considering end nodes and junction nodes as matching strategy.
