Detailed Description

3d hole closing

Usage: holeclosing in connex holesize out

Description: Hole closing in 3d binary images. The parameter connex gives the connectivity used for the object; possible choices are 6 and 26. Holes which have a "size" greater than holesize are let open (where -1 is used as a symbol for infinity).

Let X be the set of points of the binary image in, let Y be a full enclosing box. The algorithm is the following:

Repeat until stability:
    Select a point p of Y \ X such that Tb(p,Y) = 1
        or such that Tb(p,Y) = 2 and d(p,X) > holesize
        which is at the greatest distance from X
    Y := Y \ {p}
Result: Y
