Digital Manifolds in Computer Modeling

TOPICS OF INTEREST

While any work on digital manifolds which presents results of exceptional quality would be relevant to the special issue, expected focus is seen in the study of topological and geometric properties of digital manifolds, and related algorithms and applications. In this regard, specific topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

Topology of digital manifolds; graph representations, skeletons and thinning algorithms
Boundary tracking of digital solids; geometric characteristics of object boundaries; multigrid convergence analysis of metric-based descriptors
Digital manifolds and shape representation, recognition, and analysis

Of special interest is the analysis and processing of digital manifolds that feature complex topology and considerable size. This includes:

Processing “very large” digital manifolds. Compressed representations and parallel processing
Generalizations of digital manifolds (“pinched digital surfaces,” digital manifolds with singularities)
