Abstract
This paper describes ongoing work on an algorithm for performing 3-D grayscale skeletonization. The algorithm makes use of a variation of the gray weighted distance transform without performing any prior thresholding. It is being developed as a tool for structural biologists to utilize in determining the structure of large protein molecules
