چکیده

These last years, deformable models raised much interest and found various applications in the eld of computer vision. They provide an extensible framework to reconstruct shapes. Deformable surfaces, in particular, are used to represent 3D objects. They have been used for pattern recognition [47, 2], computer animation [118], geometric modelling [40, 75], simulation [45], boundaries tracking [14], segmentation [83], etc. In this report we propose a deformable surfaces survey. Many surface representation have been proposed to meet di erent 3D reconstruction problem requirements. We try to classify the main representations proposed in the literature and we study the e ect of the representation on the model evolution behavior, revealing some similarities between di erent approaches. Whe then focus on a powerful discrete mesh representation, the simplex meshes. We propose di erent algorithms to control simplex meshes shape and topology. Whe show results on 3D medical images segmentation. Key-words: Deformable Surface, representation, geometry, topology, medical images, 3D Représentation, forme, topologie et évolution des surfaces déformables. Application à la segmentation d'images médicales 3D. Résumé : Ces dernières années, les modèles déformables ont trouvé de nombreuses applications dans le domaine de la vision par ordinateur. Ils constituent une représentation extensible utile à la reconstruction de formes. Ils sont utilisés dans des applications aussi diverses que la reconnaissance de motifs [47, 2], l'animation [118], la modélisation géométrique [40, 75], la simulation [45], le suivi de contours [14], la segmentation [83], etc. Dans ce rapport, nous détaillons les di érentes approches fondées sur les surfaces déformables. De nombreuses représentation ont été proposées pour résoudre des problèmes de reconstruction 3D variés. Nous ordonnons les principales représentations trouvées dans la litérature et nous étudions l'impact de la représentation sur l'évolution des modèles, montrant les similarités existantes entre di érentes approches. Nous nous concentrons ensuite sur une représentation souple et élégante: les maillages simplexes. Di érents algorithmes de contrôle de la forme et de la topologie sont décrits. Quelques résultats des segmentation d'images médicales 3D illustrent la mise en ÷uvre de ces surfaces déformables. Mots-clés : Surface déformable, représentation, géométrie, topologie, images médicales, 3D Representation, shape, topology and evolution of deformable surfaces. 3

Topology-Preserving Discrete Deformable Model: Application to Multi-segmentation of Brain MRI

Among the numerous 3D medical image segmentation methods proposed in the literature, very few have intended to provide topologically satisfying results, a fortiori for multiple object segmentation. In this paper, we present a method devoted to parallel segmentation of the main classes of cerebral tissues from 3D magnetic resonance imaging data. This method is based on a multi-class discrete def...

Minimal Surfaces Based Object Segmentation

A geometric approach for 3D object segmentation and representation is presented. The segmentation is obtained by deformable surfaces moving towards the objects to be detected in the 3D image. The model is based on curvature motion and the computation of surfaces with minimal areas, better known as minimal surfaces. The space where the surfaces are computed is induced from the 3D image (volumetr...

Surface Simplex Meshes for 3D Medical Image Segmentation

Medical image segmentation is often a diicult task due to the low contrast, the low signal/noise ratio and the presence of outliers in images. However, it remains a critical issue for image interpretation, pattern recognition and automatic diagnosis. Deformable models are well-suited for capturing the geometry and the shape variability of anatomical structures from medical images. Indeed, they ...
