链码在图像提取的后期即模式识别是一个很重要的特征,比如进行数字识别或者文字识别都会用到链码的特征,而链码的提取则可以借助于边界跟踪算法获取边界序列,注意是边界序列而不是边界,边界很容易获取,但是要想把边界的点按照一定的顺序输出则要费些功夫。下面采用边界跟踪算法获取边界,并存储在堆栈中,(这里的堆栈实际是C++容器类,是虚拟堆栈)。


利用点的八邻域信息,选择下一个点作为边界点,这个算法需要选择一个开始点,可以选择图像上是目标点,在最上,最左的点。然后查看它的八邻域的点,从右下方45°的位置开始寻找,如果是目标点,将沿顺时针90°作为下一次寻找的方向,如果不是,则逆时针45°继续寻找,一旦找到重复上面的过程。

具体的步骤在算法中有讲解。
