Abstract

The notion of P-simple points was introduced by Bertrand to conceive parallel thinning algorithms. In `A 3D fully parallel thinning algorithm for generating medial faces' (Pattern Recogn. Lett. 16:83---87, 1995), Ma proposed an algorithm for which there are objects whose topology is not preserved. In this paper, we propose a new application of P-simple points: to automatically correct Ma's algorithm.
