In this project, we propose a new PDE-based method for extracting the shape salient nodes that correspond to its prominent parts. The method is highly robust to boundary noise and works for both 2D and 3D. The key idea is to propagate inside the object a monotonic wave front, whose motion is governed by the Eikonal equation, such that it divides the object into a set of adjacent clusters that are normal to the shape curve skeletons or symmetry axis. These clusters are then converted into a graph, from which the shape prominent nodes are easily found.

 This technique has been developed during working on extracting centerlines and curve skeletons of both 2D and 3D shapes, respectively.
