Active contours are adapted to image segmentation by energy minimization. The energies often exhibit local minima, requiring regularization. Such an a priori can be expressed as a...

We present a new object segmentation method that is based on geodesic active contours with combined shape and appearance priors. It is known that using shape priors can significan...
In this paper, we propose a new variational model to segment an object belonging to a given shape space using the active contour method, a geometric shape prior and the Mumford-Sha...

Abstract. In this paper we propose a new variational framework for image segmentation that incorporates the information of expected shape and a few points on the boundary into geod...

A novel method of incorporating shape information into the image segmentation process is presented. We introduce a representation for deformable shapes and define a probability di...
