Abstract

A three dimensional digital binary image is B26 connected if its set of black voxels is 26-connected, i.e. for all black voxels there exists at least one black voxel among its 26 neighbors. We show that any two such images I and J of c1 and c2 number of connected components respectively and n voxels each, can be transformed into one another maintaining the B26 connectivity of the black voxels by O((c1 + c2)n2) interchanges.
