Abstract

A new approach for contour data compression is presented in the paper - Cartesian co-ordinates of an input contour are processed in such a way that final contour is represented by one-dimensional set of distances with constant, regular angle between them. The selection of vertices and the final algorithm for contour compression are described. Comparison of proposed method with the Ramer algorithm was also performed. For comparison the mean square error and SNR criteria were used. Finally, results of the experiments and advantages and drawbacks of proposed method are discussed.
