โฆ Synopsis
An effective algorithm of skeletonization for digital binary pictures based on input-time-tracing principle and sequential decomposition of input picture into simple parts is described. The proposed algorithm is fast and requires no image memory. Its computing complexity does not depend on the thickness of picture patterns and is determined not by the number of picture pixels but by the essentially small number of horizontal and vertical lines constituting the contour of the picture.
