Algebraic Topological Method for Semantic Modelling of Plant Cell Shapes

Geometric structures of objects in traditional geometric feature modelling are obtained via several numerical calculations; however, some geometric information is lost when objects are modelled in other dimensional spaces. The study proposes the method of simplicial complexes for the representation of topological structures of plant cell shapes and their 3D formalization using the Ontology Language. The proposed method provides description and representation of the topology of cell shapes according to the local and global characteristics of computer graphics and enables to obtain semantic information about their complex relations.
