Computing the medial axis transform of polygonal objects by testing discs

An algorithm for computing the medial axis transform of 2D polygonal domains is presented. It exploits the full connectivity of the medial axis in polygonal domains by advancing a previously known maximal inscribed disc through the feasible branches of the medial axis to build. An analysis of the al...

Sumario:An algorithm for computing the medial axis transform of 2D polygonal domains is presented. It exploits the full connectivity of the medial axis in polygonal domains by advancing a previously known maximal inscribed disc through the feasible branches of the medial axis to build. An analysis of the algorithm is given and some results are shown.
