Polygon decomposition in a histopathological tissue sample. Top: Regions of interest are selected from a histopathological tissue sample (H&E-stained image of a subsequent sample on the top left) in which different tissue types have been identified using the method in [2]. Bottom: After a preprocessing, each connected component is given as a simple polygon without holes, which is then decomposed using the proposed skeleton-based approach
