We have chosen the abstract framework of node- or edge-weighted graphs for an extensive mathematical and algorithmic description of these tools.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Volume 1 is devoted to watersheds. The topography of a graph appears by observing the evolution of a drop of water moving from node to node on a weighted graph, along flowing paths, until it reaches regional minima. The upstream nodes of a regional minimum constitute its catchment zone.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The catchment zones may be constructed independently of each other and locally, in contrast with the traditional approach where the catchment basins have to be constructed all at the same time. Catchment zones may overlap, and thus, a new segmentation paradigm is proposed in which catchment zones cover each other according to a priority order. The resulting partition may then be corrected, by local and parallel treatments, in order to achieve the desired precision. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ISTE Ltd and John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54254382776664,"sku":"9781786301574","price":172.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781786301574_25aabbe7-70ef-4240-9661-6c0e69fd08c2.jpg?v=1780392653","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/topographical-tools-for-filtering-and-segmentation-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
