Abstract:
The
skeleton is a region based shape feature to describe the general
form of an object. A very illustrative definition of the skeleton is
given by the prairie-fire analogy: the boundary of an object is set
on fire and the skeleton is the loci where the fire fronts meet and
quench each other. During the last two decades skeletonization
(i.e., skeleton extraction from binary digital images) has been an
important research field.
The three major skeletonization
techniques (distance-based, Voronoi-based, and thinning) and some
applications will be
presented.
