This paper introduces a novel sequential thinning approach for n-dimensional binary objects (&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; =1,2,3, ...). Its main strength lies in its order--independency, i.e., it can produce the same skeletons for any visiting orders of border points. Furthermore, this is the first scheme in this field that is also applicable for higher dimensions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Conference paper</style></work-type><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.2316/P.2011.738-021</style></notes></record></records></xml>
