What is A Fast Sequential Method for Polygonal Approximation of Digitized Curves about?

A new and very fast algorithm for polygonal approximation is presented. It uses a scan-along technique where the approximation depends on the area deviation for each line segment. The algorithm outputs a new line segment when the area deviation per length unit of the current segment exceeds a prespecified value. Pictures are included, showing the application of the algorithm to contour coding of binary objects. Some useful simplifications of the algorithms are suggested.

Who reads A Fast Sequential Method for Polygonal Approximation of Digitized Curves?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Computer Science.
