One of the fundamental issues of human and computational cognitive psychology is pattern or shape recognition. Various applications in image processing and computer vision rely on skeleton-like shape features A possible technique for extracting these feautures is thinning. Although the majority of 2D thinning algorithms work on digital pictures sampled onthe conventional square grid, the role of some non-conventional grids, like the hexagonal and triangular grid, are of increasing importance as well. In this paper we propose numerous topolgy preserving parallel thinning algorithms that work on the triangular grid.
