Connectivity and neighborhood are fundamental topological properties of objects in pictures. Since the input for any image analysis algorithm is a digital image, which does not ne...
Thinning of a binary object is an iterative layer by layer erosion to extract an approximation to its skeleton. In order to provide topology preservation, different thinning techn...
— Digitization is not as easy as it looks. If one digitizes a 3D object even with a dense sampling grid, the reconstructed digital object may have topological distortions and in ...

Thinning is a frequently used method for extracting skeletons in discrete spaces. This paper presents an efficient parallel Žthinning algorithm that directly extracts medial line...
