Medial representations of shape

1­ Consider a set of inflatable primitives centered mid­way between 2 or more outline segments and grown to osculate (touch) the object on these segments.   

Special case: maximal contact spheres. 

Medial loci: let the outline “propagate” (i.e., continuously deform) until it self­intersects.    

Special case: Euclidean wave propagation (optics).

Medial Axis representation of shape

Qualitative descriptions: e.g., branchingstructures of elongated objects.

Quantitative descriptions: encode the varying widthof objects via the radius function (of contact spheres).

Shape features: make explicit corners,bumps, surface ridges (sharp or smooth).

Built­in hierarchy of scales: mix of spatial and width properties.

Completeness: exact reconstruction possible.

Shape dynamics: modeling of deformations, kinematics (including animation, motion),genesis (growth).

2D graph “regularization”• Transition removal, i.e., remove topological instability• 2D Boundary Smoothing2D Boundary Smoothing ordered by “scale” 

 Iterative  removal of MA branches, ordered by boundary support  (i.e.,  how  much  of  the  contour  is  represented), coupled with local boundary model adjustment, results in corner enhancement and small perturbations' smoothing.
