Description
Summary:Membrane Computing is a biologically inspired computational model. Its devices are called P systems and they perform computations by applying a finite set of rules in a synchronous, maximally parallel way. In this paper, we open a new research line: P systems are used in Computational Topology within the context of the Digital Image. We choose for this a variant of P systems, called tissue-like P systems, to obtain in a general maximally parallel manner the segmentation of 2D and 3D images in a constant number of steps. Finally, we use a software called Tissue Simulator to check these systems with some examples.
