Abstract
In a 3D two-tone digital space, the conditions under which sequential transformation of an object point to a non-object point, or its invers e, does not affect the image topology are investigated. The concept of border-connectivity is introduced and an efficient algorithm for chec king a simple point is proposed. In this connection, some other intere sting properties of 3D digital geometry are also discussed. This inves tigation may be used in thinning and topology preserving morphological transformations in 3D digital space.
