Abstract:Abstract. We present a method for estimating the surface volume of four-dimensional objects in discrete binary images. A surface volume weight is assigned to each 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 configuration of image elements. The total surface volume of a digital 4D object is given by a summation of the local volume contributions. Optimal volume weights are derived in order to provide an unbiased estimate with minimal variance for randomly oriented digitized planar hypersurfaces. Only 14 out of 64 possible boundary configurat… Show more
