Abstract

The Tree of Shapes is a morphological tree that provides an high-level hierarchical representation of the image suitable for many image processing tasks. This structure has the desirable properties to be self-dual and contrast-invariant and describes the organization of the objects through level lines inclusion. Yet it is defined on gray-level while many images have multivariate data (color images, multispectral imagesldots) where information are split across channels. In this paper, we propose some leads to extend the tree of shapes on colors with classical approaches based on total orders, more recent approaches based on graphs and also a new distance-based method. Eventually, we compare these approaches through denoising to highlight their strengths and weaknesses and show the strong potential of the new methods compared to classical ones.

Method Description

(Pre)order based methods

Colors are reduced to scalar value that defines an ordering to compute the Tree of Shapes. We have tested different pre-order on several color space, as well as several restitution rules.

  • Restitution Rules:
    • Nearest color (NC): A removed shape is assigned to the closest color in the parent shape.
    • Mean (Pmean): Every shape is assigned with the mean color of its pixels.
    • Mean Parent (MP): A removed shape is assigned with the mean color of the parent shape pixels.
  • Total orders considered: (NC, Pmean, MP are equivalent in this case).
    • Lexicographical (Lex): Lexicographical order with the R,G,B triplet.
  • Total pre-orders considered:
    • Lightness in La*b*
    • Lightness in HLS
    • Brightness
    • Chrominance in La*b*

Distance based method

Graph-based method
