Two-step skeletization of binary images based on the Zhang-Suen model and the producing mask by J., Ma, V. Yu. Tsviatkou, V. K. Kanapelka

“…The aim of the work is to limit excessive thinning and increase the resistance to contour noise of skeletons resulted from arbitrary binary image shape while maintaining a high skeletonization rate. The skeleton is a set of thin lines, the relative position, the size and shape, which conveys information of size, shape and orientation in space of the corresponding homogeneous region of the image. …”
