摘要
A fuzzy disk with center P is a fuzzy set in which membership depends only on distance from P. For any fuzzy set f, there is a maximal fuzzy disk g(p)f less-than-or-equal-to f centered at every point P, and f is the sup of the g(P)f's. (Moreover, if f is fuzzy convex, so is every g(P)f, but not conversely.) We call a set S(f) of points f-sufficient if every g(P)f less-than-or-equal-to g(Q)f for some Q in S(f); evidently f is then the sup of the g(Q)f's. In particular, in a digital image, the set of Q's at which g(f) is a (nonstrict) local maximum is f-sufficient. This set is called the fuzzy medial axis of f, and the set of g(Q)f's is called the fuzzy medial axis transformation (FMAT) of f. These definitions evidently reduce to the standard one if f is a crisp set. Unfortunately, for an arbitrary f, specifying the FMAT may require more storage space than specifying f itself.
