Abstract

In this paper a new algorithm to compute the component tree is presented. As compared to the state of the artthis algorithm does not use excessive memory and is able to work efficiently on images whose values are highly quantized or even with images having floating values. We also describe how it can be applied to astronomical data to identify relevant objects.
