A technique for transforming pixel images to form a new type of structures – named filamentous, or thread-like, by the author – possessing the property of revealing significant features of the transformed objects, has been developed. A program in Python using the OpenCV computer vision module and the Numpy data array module, allowing for efficient processing of original pixel images and visualization of filamentous mappings formed on their basis, has also been developed. Both the principles of the developed method and the main actions performed during the execution of the program code are described. The created program is distinguished by ease of use and the ability to adjust the thread placement step. Based on the results of experiments on processing a large number of heterogeneous images and analyzing the obtained results, conclusions have been drawn and recommendations have been given regarding the prospects for applying filamentous structures in various fields of science and art. Particular attention is paid to the transformation of fractal images widespread in nature. The potential convenience of using the developed thread-like structures for improving the procedures of recognizing fuzzy images (including those using neural networks), for example, obtained from satellites, is also considered.
