	  abstract     = {Retrieval image by shape similarity, given a template
shape is particularly challenging, owning to the difficulty to derive a
similarity measurement that closely conforms to the common
perception of similarity by humans. In this paper, a new method for the
representation and comparison of shapes is present which is based on
the shape matrix and snake model. It is scaling, rotation, translation
invariant. And it can retrieve the shape images with some missing or
occluded parts. In the method, the deformation spent by the template
to match the shape images and the matching degree is used to evaluate
the similarity between them.},
