Title
A New Parallel Thinning Methodology
Abstract
A perfectly parallel thinning algorithm (PPTA) is proposed. It can generate per­ fect skeletons, which consist of end points, break points, and hole points only. Exper­ imental results show that the proposed PPTA can also preserve image connectivity, produce thinner skeletons, and is faster than many existing thinning algorithms. For example, it is twice as fast as one of the fastest parallel thinning algorithm by Holt, Stewart, Clint and Perrorte.
