description

Skeletization is used to simplify an object and to give an idea of the global shape of an object. This paper concerns the continuous domain. While many methods already exist, they are mostly applied in 2D-space. We present a new method to skeletize the polygonal approximation of a 3D-object, based on projections and 2D-skeletization from binary trees.
