This paper presents a method to extract skeletons using examples. Our method is based on the observation that many deformations in real world applications are isometric or near is...
Abstract—Many sensor network applications are tightly coupled with the geometric environment where the sensor nodes are deployed. The topological skeleton extraction has shown gr...

In this paper, we present a novel approach to robust skeleton extraction. We use undirected graphs to model connectivity of the skeleton points. The graph topology remains unchang...
Shape skeleton extraction is a fundamental preprocessing task in shape-based pattern recognition. This paper presents a new algorithm for fast and precise extraction of kinematic ...
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...
