摘要
We present an algorithm for computing the exact interior medial axis of a union of balls in Rd. Our algorithm combines the simple characterization of this medial axis given by Attali and Montanvert with the combinatorial information provided by Edelsbrunner's alpha -shape. This leads to a simple algorithm, which we have implemented for d = 3. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
