A 3D fully parallel surface-thinning algorithm

The thinning is an iterative layer by layer erosion until only the “skeletons” of the objects are left. This paper presents a thinning algorithm for extracting medial surfaces from 3D binary pictures. The strategy which is used is called fully parallel, which means that the same parallel operator is...
