Computational topology for isotopic surface reconstruction
New computational topology techniques are presented for surface reconstruction of 2-manifolds with boundary, while rigorous proofs have previously been limited to surfaces without boundary. This is done by an intermediate construction of the envelope (as defined herein) of the original surface. For any compact C manifold M embedded in R, it is shown that its envelope is C. Then it is shown that...
متن کاملComputational Topology Surface Topology Afra
Last lecture, we spent a considerable amount of effort defining manifolds. We like manifolds because they are locally Euclidean. So, even though it is hard for us to reason about them globally, we know what to do in small neighborhoods. It turns out that this ability is all we really need. This is rather fortunate, because we suddenly have spaces with more interesting structure than the Euclide...
متن کاملTopology Smoothing for Segmentation and Surface Reconstruction
We propose a new method for removing topological defects in surfaces and volumes segmented from medical images. Unlike current topology correction approaches, we define a smoothing operator that acts solely on the image volume and can be integrated into segmentation procedures. The method is based on an analysis of the scalar field underlying the isosurface of interest, and performs only local ...
متن کاملComputational topology: ambient isotopic approximation of 2-manifolds
A fundamental issue in theoretical computer science is that of establishing unambiguous formal criteria for algorithmic output. This paper does so within the domain of computeraided geometric modeling. For practical geometric modeling algorithms, it is often desirable to create piecewise linear approximations to compact manifolds embedded in , and it is usually desirable for these two represent...
متن کاملComputational Topology in Reconstruction, Mesh Generation, and Data Analysis
Many applications involving shapes and data not only require analyzing and processing their geometries, but also associated topologies. In the past two decades, computational topology, an area rekindled by computational geometry has emphasized processing and exploiting topological structures of shapes and data. The understanding of topological structures in the context of computations has resul...
