Fast and robust dominant points detection on digital curves
Thanh Phương Nguyễn, Isabelle Debled-Rennesson · 2009
A new and fast method for dominant point detection and polygonal representation of a discrete curve is proposed. Starting from results of discrete geometry, the notion of maximal blurred segment of width v has been proposed, well adapted to possibly noisy and/or not connected curves. For a given width, the dominant points of a curve C are deduced from the sequence of maximal blurred segments of C in O(n log2n) time. Comparisons with other methods of the literature prove the efficacity of our approach.
