  • Multiscale Medial Axis Map

    • For theoretical background on the multiscale medial axis map Ml(U) of a non-empty subset U of the Euclidean space Rn, please visit the link 2D Multiscale Medial Axis Map.
  • EXAMPLES:
    • On this page, we display some numerical simulations for finding the multiscale medial axis map of 3D digital images, i.e. for digitized representations of 3D objects. For applications to 2D shapes, please visit the link 2D Multiscale Medial Axis Map.

    • ii) Uniforn sampling of the boundary
    • iii) Random sampling of the boundary
