Abstract
The quadtree medial axis is a compact image representation that can be used to derive a number of geometrical properties of an image component. A parallel algorithm for computing the quadtree medial axis transform is described. For an n ×n image, the algorithm takes O (log n ) time on an n × n pyramid
