Hi!
I have converted a colored image into black and white. Now I want to perform thinning on that image, but I do not know how to do so. Kindly help me in this regard. I need JAVA source code. Thanks and warm Regards!

My code is as follows:

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    Image image = null;
    try
    {
        //colored image path
        BufferedImage colored_image = ImageIO.read(new File("D:\\logo.jpg"));
        //getting width and height of image
        double image_width = colored_image.getWidth();
        double image_height = colored_image.getHeight();

        BufferedImage img = colored_image;

        //drawing a new image
        BufferedImage bimg = new BufferedImage((int)image_width, (int)image_height, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_GRAY);
        Graphics2D gg = bimg.createGraphics();
        gg.drawImage(img, 0, 0, img.getWidth(null), img.getHeight(null), null);

        //saving black and white image onto drive
        String temp = "logo in blackAndwhite.jpeg";
        File fi = new File("D:\\ " + temp);
        ImageIO.write(bimg, "jpg", fi);            
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        System.out.println(e);
    }       
 }
