Curve Skeletonization by Junction Detection in Surface Skeletons

We present an algorithm that, starting from the surface skeleton of a 3D solid object, computes the curve skeleton. The algorithm is based on the detection of curves and junctions in the surface skeleton. It can be applied to any surface skeleton, including the case in which the surface skeleton is two-voxel thick.
