A Dynamic Medial Axis Model for Sensor Networks
An important property in a sensor network is the monitoring of temporal changes of hazardous situations such as forest fires. Rescue groups need to be aware of dynamic changes th...

Medial axis approximation from inner Voronoi balls: a demo of the Mesecina tool
We illustrate a simple algorithm for approximating the medial axis of a 2D shape with smooth boundary from a sample of this boundary. The algorithm is compared to a more general a...

Retrieving Articulated 3-D Models Using Medial Surfaces and Their Graph Spectra
We consider the use of medial surfaces to represent symmetries of cts. This allows for a qualitative abstraction based on a directed acyclic graph of components and also a degree o...

Transitions of the 3D Medial Axis under a One-Parameter Family of Deformations
The instabilities of the medial axis of a shape under deformations have long been recognized as a major obstacle to its use in recognition and other applications. These instabilit...

A Straight Skeleton Approximating the Medial Axis
We propose the linear axis, a new skeleton for polygonal shapes. It is related to the medial axis and the straight skeleton, being the result of a wavefront propagation process. Th...
