morph_skeleton
— Compute the morphological skeleton of a region.

Signature
morph_skeleton(Region : RegionSkeleton : : )
Description
morph_skeleton
computes the skeleton of the input
regions (Region
) using morphological transformations.
The computation yields a disconnected skeleton (gaps in the
diagonals) having a width of one or two pixels. The calculation
uses the Golay element 'h', i.e., an 8-neighborhood. This is
equivalent to the maximum-norm.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Automatically parallelized on tuple level.
Parameters
Region
(input_object) region(-array) →
object
Regions to be processed.
RegionSkeleton
(output_object) region(-array) →
object
Resulting morphological skeleton.
Result
morph_skeleton
returns 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
if all parameters are
correct. The behavior in case of empty or no input region can be
set via:
-
empty region:
set_system('empty_region_result',<RegionResult>)
Otherwise, an exception is raised.
