Designing a complete visualization system involves many subtle decisions. When designing
a complex, real-world visualization system, such decisions involve many types of …

We propose a method for digital hair removal from dermoscopic images, based on a
threshold-set model. For every threshold, we adapt a recent gap-detection algorithm to find …

Medial axes are well-known descriptors used for representing, manipulating, and
compressing binary images. In this paper, we present a full pipeline for computing a stable …

A component tree is a graph representation that encodes the connected components of the
upper or lower level sets of a grayscale image. Consequently, the nodes of a component …

Medial descriptors are of significant interest for image simplification, representation,
manipulation, and compression. On the other hand, B-splines are well-known tools for …

Medial descriptors offer a promising way for representing, simplifying, manipulating, and
compressing images. However, to date, these have been applied in a global manner that is …

Skeletons are well-known descriptors used for analysis and processing of 2D binary images.
Recently, dense skeletons have been proposed as an extension of classical skeletons as a …

As an increasing number of digital images are generated, a demand for an efficient and
effective image retrieval mechanisms grows. In this work, we present a new skeleton-based …

Chinese calligraphy is often used to perform the beauty of characters in Chinese culture and
is quite suitable in the study of shape representation. The skeleton of a digital line pattern …
