New Approach for the Skeletonization of Handwritten Characters in Gray-Level Images
Existing skeletonization methods operate directly on the binary image ignoring the gray-level information. In this paper we propose a new method for the skeletonization of handwri...

Skeleton Extraction via Anisotropic Heat Flow
We introduce a novel skeleton extraction algorithm in binary and gray-scale images, based on the anisotropic heat diffusion analogy. We propose to diffuse image in the dominance o...

Skeletonization using SSM of the Distance Transform
This paper proposes a new approach for skeletonization based on the skeleton strength map (SSM) caculated by Euclidean distance transform of a binary image. After the distance tra...

Silhouette Images
A set of silhouette images that can be used during testing a new centerline extraction technique. Some of the images are drawn by hand, while others are collected from several clas...
