A hierarchy of methods of defining the skeleton is proposed; in the
more complicated ones, the skeleton is relatively invariant under
rotation. Two algorithms for computing the skeleton are defined, and
the corresponding computer programs are compared. A criterion is
proposed for determining the most significant skeleton points.
