Fast Chain Coding of Connected-Component Boundaries

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new method to obtain connected component in binary images is presented. The method uses DFA automaton to obtain chain code and label the component boundary It is theoretically proved that the algorithm improves the image encoding efficiency closer to the lowest time consumption.
