3D well-composed polyhedral complexes

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: A binary three-dimensional (3D) image I is well-composed if the boundary surface of its continuous analog is a 2D manifold. Since 3D images are not often well-composed, there are several voxel-based methods ("repairing" algorithms) for turning them into well-composed ones but these methods either do not guarantee the topological equivalence between the original image and its corresponding well-composed one or involve sub-sampling the whole image. In this paper, we present a method to locally "repair" the cubical complex Q(I) (embedded in mathbbR3) associated to I to obtain a polyhedral complex P(I) homotopy equivalent to Q(I) such that the boundary of every connected component of P(I) is a 2D manifold. The reparation is performed via a new codification system for P(I) under the form of a 3D grayscale image that allows an efficient access to cells and their faces.
