Skeleton is a frequently applied shape feature to represent the general form of an object. Thinning is an iterative object reduction technique for producing a reasonable approximat...
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...
A PCNNs-based square-and-triangle-template method for binary fingerprint image thinning is proposed. The algorithm is iterative, in which a combined sequential and parallel proces...
Abstract. We recently introduced the watershed cuts, a notion of watershed in edge-weighted graphs. In this paper, we propose a new thinning paradigm to compute them. More precisel...
