摘要:thinning algorithms have played an important role in the preprocessing phase of OCR systems.. Many algorithms forvectorization by thinning have been devised and applied to a great variety of pictures and drawings for data compression, patternrecognition and raster-to-vector conversion. The vectorization algorithms often used in pattern recognition tasks also require onepixel-wide lines as input. But parallel thinning algorithms which generate one-pixel-wide thinnings can have difficulty inpreserving the connectivity of an image or generate spurious branches. A few most common thinning algorithms have beenimplemented and evaluated on the basis of performance parameters.
