In the three-dimensional spin foam model of quantum gravity with a cosmological constant, there exists a set of observables associated with spin network graphs. A set of probabilities is calculated from these observables, and hence the associated Shannon entropy can be defined. We present the Shannon entropy associated with these observables and find some interesting bounded inequalities. The problem relates measurements, entropy and information theory in a simple way which we explain.

Hierarchical skeletons and shape components are important shape features, and they are useful for shape description and shape understanding. Techniques to extract shape components and hierarchical skeletons from volume data are analyzed in this paper based on multiple distance transformations. The application of volume decomposition for the extraction of hierarchical skeletons is emphasized and specified here. This work includes an establishment of the hierarchical structure of the object volume, a decomposition of the volume into simple sub-volumes, an extraction of compact skeleton segments corresponding to each independent sub-volume, and a connection of these skeleton segments into a hierarchical structure reflecting the organization the initial data
