CENTER-POINT MODEL OF DEFORMABLE SURFACE

  • Chapter
Computer Vision and Graphics

Part of the book series: Computational Imaging and Vision ((CIVI,volume 32))

Abstract

Center-point model of deformable surface for segmentation of 3D images is presented. Mobility of each node, element composing the surface, is constrained in the model to one direction. Also an original formula for image influence computation is proposed. The model aims at algorithm simplification and reduction of computational time needed for segmentation of 3D imaging data acquired from magnetic resonance or computer tomography scanner.
