Braids of partitions for the hierarchical representation and segmentation of multimodal images
作者：
Highlights：
• We propose a methodology for the hierarchical representation of multimodal images.
• The hierarchical representation relies on the novel concept of braids of partitions.
• We introduce a braid-based method to conduct multimodal image segmentation.
• The segmentation method is based on an energy minimization procedure.
• The proposed approach is validated on different multimodal images.
