ABSTRACT
This article presents an improved morphological image representation that can be used for image compression, obtaining very high compression rates. The new image representation described in this work is called skeleton structure and is a natural extension of the morphologic structure. This article will present its theoretical background, introduce the new representation, and show some application examples.
