Please provide me the matlab code to identify shapes on this image and classify them as square, rectangle, circle and triangle.

Not sure whose code you're talking about, but glad you finally got it working. If you have any questions in the future, post your image and code in a new question.

Another approach is to calculate the best-fit bounding rectangle of each object, such that the bounding rectangle can be oriented at an arbitrary angle. I took the following approach:
1) Identify the boundary (i.e. perimeter) of each object, using bwboundaries()
2) Calculate the smallest rectangular bounding box that contains this perimeter. To do this, I used the minboundrect function available at http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/34767-a-suite-of-minimal-bounding-objects/content/MinBoundSuite/minboundrect.m.
3) I calculated the width, height, and area of each bounding rectangle. The aspect ratio (ratio between the width and height) can be used to determine whether it is a square (aspect ratio ~= 1.0) or rectangle.
4) For a rectangle or square, the filled area of the object (from regionprops()) should be almost the same as the area of its bounding rectangle, whereas for a triangle it should be substantially less.
5) For the circularity condition, I used the ratio between perimeter and area like Image Analyst suggested.
Enjoy!
im = imread('http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/uploaded_files/8372/abc.jpg');
%convert to 2D black and white with colors inverted
BW = im(:,:,1) < 10;
%get outlines of each object
[B,L,N] = bwboundaries(BW);
%get stats
stats= regionprops(L, 'Centroid', 'Area', 'Perimeter');
Centroid = cat(1, stats.Centroid);
Perimeter = cat(1,stats.Perimeter);
Area = cat(1,stats.Area);
CircleMetric = (Perimeter.^2)./(4*pi*Area); %circularity metric
SquareMetric = NaN(N,1);
TriangleMetric = NaN(N,1);
%for each boundary, fit to bounding box, and calculate some parameters
for k=1:N,
boundary = B{k};
[rx,ry,boxArea] = minboundrect( boundary(:,2), boundary(:,1)); %x and y are flipped in images
%get width and height of bounding box
width = sqrt( sum( (rx(2)-rx(1)).^2 + (ry(2)-ry(1)).^2));
height = sqrt( sum( (rx(2)-rx(3)).^2+ (ry(2)-ry(3)).^2));
aspectRatio = width/height;
if aspectRatio > 1,
aspectRatio = height/width; %make aspect ratio less than unity
end
SquareMetric(k) = aspectRatio; %aspect ratio of box sides
TriangleMetric(k) = Area(k)/boxArea; %filled area vs box area
end
%define some thresholds for each metric
%do in order of circle, triangle, square, rectangle to avoid assigning the
%same shape to multiple objects
isCircle = (CircleMetric < 1.1);
isTriangle = ~isCircle & (TriangleMetric < 0.6);
isSquare = ~isCircle & ~isTriangle & (SquareMetric > 0.9);
isRectangle= ~isCircle & ~isTriangle & ~isSquare; %rectangle isn't any of these
%assign shape to each object
whichShape = cell(N,1);
whichShape(isCircle) = {'Circle'};
whichShape(isTriangle) = {'Triangle'};
whichShape(isSquare) = {'Square'};
whichShape(isRectangle)= {'Rectangle'};
%now label with results
RGB = label2rgb(L);
imshow(RGB); hold on;
Combined = [CircleMetric, SquareMetric, TriangleMetric];
for k=1:N,
%display metric values and which shape next to object
Txt = sprintf('C=%0.3f S=%0.3f T=%0.3f', Combined(k,:));
text( Centroid(k,1)-20, Centroid(k,2), Txt);
text( Centroid(k,1)-20, Centroid(k,2)+20, whichShape{k});
end

Look at the perimeter squared to area ratio. Use regionprops as shown in my Image Segmentation Tutorial: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/?term=authorid%3A31862
[EDIT]
See attached demo.

hye sir, i use your shape_recognition_demo.m. code. but i want to use my own image, i already use your method which replace the
% Now create a demo image.
[binaryImage, numSidesCircularity] = CreateDemoImage();
with imread() but i got an error 'unrecognized function or variable 'binaryImage' , how to solve this? thankyou in advanced!

@aliya I just downloaded it and it works fine. You modified it somehow but didn't attach your code so I can't fix it.
I'm attaching the lastest version I have of the demo (not sure if it's changed over the last 7 years, but probably).

Mr.matt kindig, I am working with your "various shapes detecting" code which is in this page. The code u have written is working very well for the above black and white image(the image which you chosen to write code). But I am using some other images( 'shapes.jpg' which is now I am submitting) which might have some holes in the inside of the image and I am getting error( error is the matrix cannot be generated). How to fill the small holes in that image. Can I draw subplots for your code for various shapes that are present in the image?

Venkatesh A, you forgot to give the link to your question where you attached your code and image.
If you do that, we can go to your question and tell you how to use imfill(binaryImage, 'holes') to fill holes in your image.

I am getting an error at isTriangle = ~isCircle & (TriangleMetric < 0.6); as: Error using & Matrix dimensions must agree.
Please help me solve this problem.

Again, it's minboundrect(), not minboundract().
Supply your image and code in a new question (not as an Answer here in ROMIL's discussion thread - he probably doesn't care anymore since he posted this three and a half years ago.)

You should start your own question on this. In that question I'll tell you how to find the blobs, perhaps based on color saturation, and then to take the histogram of each blob looking for a fairly bimodal histogram. The standard deviation of the histogram of the all black and all white objects will be much less than a checkerboard object. If you still can't figure it out, I might post code over in that new question you're going to post.

Hi Sir,
Is it also possible to classify the direction of the triangle. e.g. left pointing triangle or right pointing triangle? Also classifying the thrid/fourth object in the picture? This is not really a rectangle, but how to separate this from a real rectangle?
Kind regards,
Michelle

Yes, I'm sure you could. Just modify my attached shape recognition demo. Once you have the blob, find its bounding box and centroid with regionprops. Then if the centroid is to the left of the centerline of the bounding box, it's pointing to the left. If it's below, it's pointing up.
For the other object, you'll also have to look for how many vertices it has and then perhaps scale a template to its size and see if enough pixels match to be considered that object. You could also do the template matching method with the triangles if you want. No, I don't have code for that but, being smart engineer, I'm sure you will find it easy to do.
