This paper introduces an algorithm for optimal boundary extraction based on representing edge segments in the form of a graph. This algorithm proposes a method for finding the shortest path, based on Critical path method, which is nothing but the optimal boundary. A program has been developed for finding the shortest path. The effectiveness of the algorithm is illustrated by means of an example and some concluding remarks are provided at the last.
