摘要：Thinning is a popular approach for morphological shape representation. For the complex shapes the simple morphological thinning does not yield a good automatic boundary description. This is because the approach does not take in to consideration the connected component approach. The present paper presents a novel scheme for thinning, using connected component approach. One of the disadvantages of the existing morphological thinning method is that it is not automatic. It always requires human interaction to detect the good skeleton, and then by stopping the iterative process. The novelty of the present paper is that it always measures the value of the connected components by which the proposed method makes the algorithm as automatic. The present scheme is applied on English alphabets which possess different structures and shapes, and good results are obtained.
