In recent years, techniques to image the development of biological organisms have made spectacular progresses. Researchers are now able to observe the trajectories corresponding to the development of 3D- plant tissues or animal embryo with cellular resolution. However, such observations yield a large amount of data, which, in turn, require fast and robust analysis tools to extract information while minimizing user interaction. The goal of M. Petit, which PhD thesis has begun november the 1st, is first to propose new lineage extraction schemes, and then analysis tools over a population of lineages.
