Abstract
A novel SIMD parallel algorithm for the calculation of distance transformations is presented, suitable for massively parallel image processors or long wordlength conventional serial processors. Comparisons are provided, showing results of an implementation on a real SIMD processor, and the speedup achieved over the sequential local algorithm on a signal processor
