Volume visualization, as an important three-dimensional data visualization technique, can explore the shape of different structure in three-dimensional data, size and spatial relation.In order to the different structure in correct visualization of 3 d data, a suitable transport function is necessary; Transport function is used for distributing different colors and transparency to different structures, and which structure is transparency determine is visible, and color is used for distinguishing different structures.
Transport function design is extensively studied at present and applies, especially in medical 3 D is visual.But being still faced with a challenge, is exactly that how to design a suitable transport function be actual three-dimensional data.Because structures different in actual three-dimensional data may have similar attribute, or these structures are closely adjacent on three dimensions, easily occur to connect by mistake, and these reasons all result in difficulty and the complexity of Designing Transfer Function.Current most of transport function design is all be separated different structures by the attribute region different at transport function spatial choice.Each transport function space is made up of specific attribute, such as: gray scale, gradient, second derivative, texture, curvature, size etc.According to the difference of transport function space dimensionality, transport function can be divided into low-dimensional transport function and higher-dimension transport function.
The object of low-dimensional transport function by utilizing little attribute to reach classification, popular low-dimensional transport function mainly comprises one-dimensional transfer function and two-dimentional transport function.One-dimensional transfer function is based on a specific attribute, to classify three-dimensional data structure mainly through gray scale.Two dimension transport function is based on two attributes, such as: shade of gray two dimension transport function, and the mean variance two dimension transport function etc. of the less larger two-dimentional transport function of edge variation and regional area.They are all by selecting specific region in transport function space to be separated different edges.The advantage of low-dimensional transport function to provide mutual friendly interface, allows user select intuitively and to adjust feature space, be therefore widely used in volume drawing.But low-dimensional transport function is faced with imbricate problem: the different structure with same alike result has identical region in transport function space.Meanwhile; due to PVE (Partial VolumeEffects; half bulk effect) area data value mixes by other adjacent data values and data value own, the different edges of closely adjacent attribute similarity can occur to connect usually by mistake, and this makes imbricate problem more complicated.This is the maximum technical matters that the design of low-dimensional transport function faces.Higher-dimension transport function is assigned with more attribute to each voxel, and what usually can be separated better compares low-dimensional transport function.Such as: the dendrogram method of improvement, intelligent system method, machine learning method etc.But the design of higher-dimension transport function is also faced with very serious complicacy: the first, is difficult to determine to need which attribute to design a transport function; The second, higher-dimension transport function time overhead is very huge, limits the actual of it and applies; 3rd, higher-dimension transport function operates as a black box, usually can not flexible operating transport function according to actual needs; 4th, the situation that higher-dimension transport function connects in the face of attribute similarity edge by mistake has limited separating power.

Embodiment 1
As shown in Figure 1, the present embodiment comprises the following steps:
Step one, first at SG-TF spatial choice rectangular area U, this rectangular area U defines the data point scope that will gather, and rectangle left and right edges represents the interval V of tonal range s=[V a, V b], lower edges represents the interval V of gradient scope g=[V c, V d], only have the shade of gray of data point to meet this rectangular extent just collected and show, image data point set is combined into Φ here u.
Φ U = { ( x , y , z ) : ( f ( x , y , z ) ∈ V S , | | ▿ f ( x , y , z ) | | ∈ V G ) }
Described SG-TF space refers to first quartile region in XOY coordinate system, and horizontal ordinate represents gray-scale value, and ordinate represents Grad.In three-dimensional data, each data point (x, y, z) has a gray-scale value f (x, y, z) and Grad grad is calculated by gray-scale value, and computing formula is:
| | ▿ f ( x , y , z ) | | = G x 2 + G y 2 + G z 2
G x=(f(x+1,y,z)-f(x-1,y,z))/2
G y=(f(x,y+1,z)-f(x,y-1,z))/2
G z=(f(x,y,z+1)-f(x,y,z-1))/2
Step 2, to all Φ uin data point carry out spatial connectivity calculating, extract all connected set C k.Each connected set represents a structural edge S ibut, due to the existence in PVE region, two spatially closely adjacent edge S iand S jcan occur to connect, so connected set C by mistake k=S i∩ S j, i and j represents the label at different edge respectively here, and value is integer.
Described spatial connectivity calculates and refers to: connective expression is in three-dimensional regular data grids, and whether data point is adjacent is close to, and adjacent is be communicated with by just illustrating.Travel through all Φ uin data point, determine which data point is spatially adjacent according to contiguous range, extract all spatially adjacent connected set, concrete grammar is as Fig. 2.Territory has 6 neighborhoods, 18 fields, and three kinds, 26 fields etc. are in 3 × 3 × 3 cubes, and we can select any one as contiguous range, here with 18 neighborhood N 18for example.Below neighborhood computing formula:

(x, y, z) is current data point, and (i, j, k) is that data point in 3 × 3 × 3 cubes centered by current point is in three-dimensional mesh data.
The edge that step 3, separation occur to connect by mistake is by set operation, and removal causes the PVE region Λ by mistake connected exactly.Connect for the mistake at two edges, two edge S 1and S 2linked together by Λ by mistake, C k=S 1∩ S 2∩ Λ.And the data value of PVE region Λ is different from the data value of two neighboring edge junctions, illustrates technically and can remove Λ region to be separated two edges.

Step 3.1, etching operation: by removing the minimum data point of (or large) of gray-scale value and the data point of PVE region Λ from the left side (or the right), slowly shrink rectangular area U; Described contraction is preferably first carried out connectedness afterwards and is calculated, until obtain the structural edge after two corrosion with
Step 3.2, expansive working: the structural edge after the corrosion obtain step 3.1 carries out expansion process, be grouped into corrosion edge itself by the ambient data dot-dash of each data point, specific as follows:
The present embodiment adopt expansion radius be 3, and in three-dimensional data centered by current data point 7 × 7 × 7 cube in expand.
The structural edge of the present embodiment first after selective etching carry out expansive working and obtain expansion edge
Step 3.3, phase reducing: by the connected set C containing wrong connection kdeduct expansion edge obtain another edge: here S is obtained 1to need right before carry out connectedness to calculate, extract maximum connected set edge i.e. S 1corresponding connected set.
Here why carrying out asking for maximal connected set, is because the data centralization after subtracting each other comprises fragment (little connected set).
Step 3.4, repetition step 3.2 and step 3.3 obtain edge
Step 4, repetition above-mentioned steps 3.1 ~ 3.4, until Φ uin all edge S of comprising iall separated, finally to different structure edge S igive different colors and transparency, realize the visual of the structural edge of image.
As shown in Fig. 4 a ~ Fig. 6 c, the present embodiment by spatially away from edge opened with spatially the adjacent edge occurring by mistake to be connected is all separated, compared with prior art, its advantage is:
First: solve imbricate problem in the design of low-dimensional transport function, the edge occurring by mistake to connect can be separated accurately, and existingly have technology to be undivided.
Second: maintain former marginate slickness and accuracy.
3rd: simple to operate, non-domain expert also can apply this system.
