Hello everyone!

I've only just started exploring the field of image processing. Right now
I am working on OCR for DOT-MATRIX printed characters and need a good 
skeletonization algorithm to reduce the irregularities in the contour that
my recognition engine has to deal with. 

If anyone has come across/devised good skeletonization algorithms for
this problem, kindly email me (at kaykit@iti.gov.sg) the relevant references. 
Thanks.
