sk_medial — 2D region op

Data kinds: regionregion

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "sk_medial", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

HALCON equivalent: skeleton (the HALCON reference is a useful guide to its meaning and parameters)

Usage

Medial axis transform. A different algorithm from sk_skeleton that finds the skeleton by extracting the ridge lines of the distance transform, tending to produce a skeleton that retains distance-from-contour information.

> The detailed description below is the original text — the summary and the headings are translated.

HALCON の skeleton に相当(近似)。実装は `morphology.medial_axis(binm(v), rng=0) —— rng=0 はタイ(同点)の崩し方を決める乱数シードを固定し、毎回同じ結果になるようにしている。a, b は未使用。distance 出力(return_distance`)は使っておらず、骨格の真偽値マスクのみを返す。
