Most variational active contour models are designed to find the “desirable” local minima of data-dependent energy functionals with the hope of avoiding undesirable configurat...
Slanted surfaces pose a problem for correspondence algorithms utilizing search because of the greatly increased number of possibilities, when compared with frontoparallel surfaces...
In this paper, we present a new approach for image labeling based on the recently introduced graph-shifts algorithm. Graph-shifts is an energy minimization algorithm that does lab...
A new approach to active contours on statistical manifolds is presented. The statistical manifolds are 2dimensional Riemannian manifolds that are statistically defined by maps that...

We present a new class of deformable models, MetaMorphs, whose formulation integrates both shape and interior texture. The model deformations are derived from both boundary and re...
