Constructing a 2D grid from edges is a fundamental technique in computer graphics and image processing used to create a structured representation of a shape or image. Given a set of edges, representing the boundaries of the shape, the goal is to connect these edges to form a grid-like structure, providing a more organized and analyzable representation. This process involves identifying vertices where edges intersect and constructing a grid that connects these vertices, forming cells that represent the interior of the shape.
The process of constructing a 2D grid from edges finds numerous applications in various domains, including image segmentation, object recognition, and finite element analysis. It enables the efficient representation and manipulation of complex shapes, allowing for further analysis and processing. Additionally, the structured nature of a grid simplifies tasks such as pathfinding, region growing, and geometric computations within the shape.
