2.9 An example of different topographic distance reference. (a) An original<br />
image. (b) An image of a topographic distance from the boundary. (c)<br />
An image of a topographic distance from a center flat zone. . . . . . . 33<br />

3.1 An example of a given image and its TD-tree. Each flat zone of the<br />
image corresponds to a node of the TD-tree (indicated by the letter<br />
V, followed by the node number), its gray-level (shown in the variable<br />
GL), and its boundary topographic distance (shown in the variable TD). 38<br />
3.2 Synthetic image with the corresponding image of topographic distances. 42<br />

distances. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 42<br />
