- Abstract
Thinning is an important step in image processing where we minimize (reduces) the width of the image i.e. the no. of pixels that helps in reducing the memory usage. This paper proposes a new algorithm for thinning of images and helps minimizing its size. The newly proposed algorithm preserves the connectivity of the image pattern and provides a reduced image after processing the given image. The algorithm is composed of three passes to get thinned image that is connected, reduced and gives clear view of whole image.
