چکیده

A new parallel binary image shrinking algorithm that can be considered as an improvement of Levialdi's (1972) parallel shrinking algorithm and can be used in many image labeling algorithms as a basic operation in order to reduce the storage requirements for local memory and speed up the labeling process is presented. This new parallel shrinking algorithm shrinks an nxn binary image to an image with no black pixels in O(n) parallel steps with a multiplicative constant of 1.5, preserving the 8-connectivity in the shrinking process.

Reconfigurable Mesh Algorithms for Image Shrinking, Expanding, Clustering, and Template Matching

Parallel reconfigurable mesh algorithms are developed for the following image processing problems: shrinking, expanding, clustering, and template matching. Our N×N reconfigurable mesh algorithm for the q-step shrinking and expansion of a binary image takes O (1) time. One pass of the clustering algorithm for N patterns and K centers can be done in O (MK + KlogN), O (KlogNM ), and O (M + logNMK ...

Image Shrinking and Expanding on a Pyramid

We develop two algorithms to perform the q step shrinking and expanding of an N×N binary image on a pyramid computer with an N×N base. The time complexity of both algorithms is O(√ q ). However, one uses O(√ q ) space per processor while the per processor space requirement of the other is O (1).

DPML-Risk: An Efficient Algorithm for Image Registration

Targets and objects registration and tracking in a sequence of images play an important role in various areas. One of the methods in image registration is feature-based algorithm which is accomplished in two steps. The first step includes finding features of sensed and reference images. In this step, a scale space is used to reduce the sensitivity of detected features to the scale changes. Afterw...

A Thinning Algorithm for Digital Figures of Characters

A thinning scheme could be used as an useful pre processing in image processing. Various algorithms have been proposed to produce the skeleton of digital binary pattern. However, they have undesirable properties that tend to cause shrinking or vanishing of the segment, the appearance of a beard, and warping where segments intersect. In this paper, we propose a parallel Hilditch algorithm to acq...

2D Parallel Thinning and Shrinking Based on Sufficient Conditions for Topology Preservation

Thinning and shrinking algorithms, respectively, are capable of extracting medial lines and topological kernels from digital binary objects in a topology preserving way. These topological algorithms are composed of reduction operations: object points that satisfy some topological and geometrical constraints are removed until stability is reached. In this work we present some new sufficient cond...
