Topological map: minimal encoding of 3d segmented images
Proceedings of 3rd IAPR-TC15 Workshop on Graph-Based Representation in Pattern Recognition, pages 64-73 - May 2001
In this paper we define formally and completely the 3d topological map introduced in BertrandAl00: a model which encodes totally and minimally all the topological information of a 3d image. In particular, we focus on the problem of disconnections induced by the constructive definition based on several levels of maps. This multilevel representation is more or less a graph pyramid in sense that each level can be compute from the previous one in term of merge operations. Furthermore, algorithms extracting these maps from a segmented image have been given in BertrandAl00 and have been implemented and tested in practical applications.
