Abstract

Rosenfeld (1974) introduced the chord property for the characterization of digital straight segments. By re-examining the notion of nearness, we present a new property, the skeleton property, and show its equivalence to the chord property. The property can be a useful alternative for testing digital straightness, particularly in the context of skeletonization of binary line images.
