Level Set Based Shape Prior Segmentation

Level Set Based Shape Prior Segmentation
We propose a level set based variational approach that incorporates shape priors into Chan-Vese's model [3] for the shape prior segmentation problem. In our model, besides the level set function for segmentation, as in Cremers' work [5], we introduce another labelling level set function to indicate the regions on which the prior shape should be compared. Our model can segment an object, whose shape is similar to the given prior shape, from a background where there are several objects. Moreover, we provide a proof for a fast solution principle, which was mentioned [7] and similar to the one proposed in [19], for minimizing ChanVese's segmentation model without length term. We extend the principle to the minimization of our prescribed functionals.
