Curve-skeleton extraction using silhouettes’ medial axes
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new method of curve-skeleton extraction is proposed in this paper. Unlike most methods this approach retrieves information from a polygonal mesh via rasterization and extraction of silhouettes’ continuous medial axes. Described method shows a great improvement in computational time comparing to existing methods. Method shows good extraction results for models with complex geometry and topology. Resulting curve-skeletons conform with most requirements to universal curve-skeletons.

Practical Medial Axis Filtering for Occlusion-Aware Contours
We propose a filtering system for occlusion-aware contours. Given a point of view, we use the silhouette of a 3D shape from that point of view, its medial axis and a map of the occluded areas. Our filter is able to select the points of the medial axis which are projections of the curve-skeleton of the 3D shape, discarding all the points affected by occlusions. Our algorithm is easy to implement...

Skeleton extraction and visualization of 3D reconstructed target objects from multiple views continues to be a major challenge in terms of providing intuitive and uncluttered images that allow the users to understand their data. This paper presents a three-dimensional skeleton extraction technique of deformable objects based on a normalized gradient vector flow in order to analyze and visualize...
متن کاملIdentification of the Dental Root Canal from Micro-CT Records Using 3D Curve Skeleton Extraction
This paper presents a novel image processing procedure dedicated to the automated detection of the medial axis of the root canal from dental micro CT records. The 3D model of root canal is built up from several hundreds of parallel cross sections, using image enhancement and an enhanced fuzzy cmeans based partitioning, center point detection in the segmented slice, three dimensional inner surfa...
متن کاملPDE-Based Medial Axis Extraction and Shape Manipulation of Arbitrary Meshes
Shape skeletonization (i.e., medial axis extraction) is powerful in many visual computing applications, such as pattern recognition, object segmentation, registration, and animation. In this paper, we expand the use of diffusion equations combined with distance field information to approximate medial axes of arbitrary 3D solids represented by polygonal meshes based on their differential propert...
متن کاملFlux driven medial curve extraction
In this document it is described the implementation of the flux driven automatic centerline extraction algorithm proposed by Bouix et al. in 2004. This is based on a skeletonisation algorithm initially proposed by Siddiqi et al. in 2002, using properties of an average outward flux measure to distinguish skeletal points from non-skeletal ones. This information is combined with a topology preserv...
