title = "Fast constrained image segmentation using optimal spanning trees",
abstract = "We propose a graph theoretical algorithm for image segmentation which preserves both the volume and the connectivity of the solid (non-void) phase of the image. The approach uses three stages. Each step optimizes the approximation error between the image intensity vector and piece-wise constant (indicator) vector characterizing the segmentation of the underlying image. The different norms in which this approximation can be measured give rise to different methods. The running time of our algorithm is O(N logN) for an image with N voxels.",
