Abstract
An algorithm for computing the medial axis transform of 2D
polygonal domains is presented. It exploits the full connectivity of
the medial axis in polygonal domains by advancing a previously known
maximal inscribed disc through the feasible branches of the medial
axis to build. An analysis of the algorithm is given and some results
are shown.
