Abstract

Thinning algorithms for stylus-generated images are presented which are based on the general ribbon model of stylus-generated images. These algorithms have several advantages over existing thinning algorithms, including the existence of a formal specification of the desired output of a thinning algorithm; the preservation of image features which have been shown to be the most perceptually significant for the human perception of stylus-generated images; and the ability to deal easily with images which contain both stroke and blob objects.
