Abstract
This paper focuses on the spatio-temporal analysis to the topology of topography of temporal gray-value images. We extract a sequence of trees which expresses the hierarchical structure of a temporal gray-value image using the linear scale space analysis. This hierarchical features of temporal images provide topological and geometrical information for the global understanding of temporal images.
