Abstract
In situ extraction of biomedical geometric primitives is addressed in this paper through consecutive applications of global and local optimization procedures, both making use of a minimal subset encoding scheme. Global search is based on a canonic genetic algorithm. Local search uses as input the global genetic search results; it performs an iterative approximation which considers the final ordered set of solutions issued from the global search. Optimization is reached by maximizing an objective function along with a fuzzy geometric model. As a prerequisite, a powerful segmentation algorithm is also described which uses mainly a 3-D watershed transform. Application is done to in situ extraction of spheroidal joint surfaces with the help of an ellipsoidal model. The whole algorithm is shown to be accurate and time efficient.
