Novel 4-D Open-Curve Active Contour and Curve Completion Approach for Automated Tree Structure Extraction
We present novel approaches for fully automated extraction of tree-like tubular structures from 3-D image stacks. A 4-D Open-Curve Active Contour (Snake) model is proposed for sim...

Reformulating and Optimizing the Mumford-Shah Functional on a Graph - A Faster, Lower Energy Solution
Active contour formulations predominate current minimization of the Mumford-Shah functional (MSF) for image segmentation and filtering. Unfortunately, these formulations necessitat...

Global Minimum for Active Contour Models: A Minimal Path Approach
A new boundary detection approach for shape modeling is presented. It detects the global minimum of an active contour model's energy between two end points. Initialization is ...

Particle Filtering for Geometric Active Contours with Application to Tracking Moving and Deforming Objects
Geometric active contours are formulated in a manner which is parametrization independent. As such, they are amenable to representation as the zero level set of the graph of a hig...

Improving snake performance via a dual active contour
A dual active contour can use two snakes to seek an energy minimum which lies between their initial positions. This relieves problems associated with initialisation. The contracti...
