Topographical Tools for Filtering and Segmentation 2

Flooding and Marker-based Segmentation on Node- or Edge-weighted Graphs

af Fernand Meyer

Mathematical morphology has developed a powerful methodology for segmenting images, based on connected filters and watersheds. We have chosen the abstract framework of node- or edge-weighted graphs for an extensive mathematical and algorithmic description of these tools.Volume 2 proposes two physical models for describing valid flooding on a node- or edge-weighted graph, and establishes how to pass from one to another. Many new flooding algorithms are derived, allowing parallel and local floodin... (Læs mere)
