In [[computer science]], a '''[[level set]]''' is a data structure designed to represent discretely [[Sampling (statistics)|sampled]] dynamic level sets of functions.
 
A common use of this form of data structure is in efficient image [[Rendering (computer graphics)|rendering]]. The underlying method constructs a [[distance transform|signed distance field]] that extends from the boundary, and can be used to solve the motion of the boundary in this field.
