Abstract
A method that measures the distance between extended objects of
nonregular shape is presented. The distance measure is an average of a
set of minimal point-to-point distances between the borders of the
objects. The set of points is collected with a well-defined criterion
based on processing of distance values on a connected medial axis formed
between the objects
