Abstract

In this paper we compare two topological models of 3D segmented images representation. These models are based on a collaboration between a topological representation and a geometrical representation of the regions of the segmented image. In both models the description of the topology lays on topological maps with a combinatorial representation. A geometrical embedding of maps is used to describe the geometry of regions. Both models differ in the way of defining this embedding. The aim of this paper is to compare these two models from the point of view of their interest for image segmentation, and to explore the possibility and the interest of making both these models converge.
