We propose a novel energy term to make the curve evolution quite robust to spurious edges. The physical intuition behind the formulation is that an object edge is generally contin...
This paper proposes a novel approach to segment three dimensional curvilinear structures, particularly vessels in angiography, by inspecting the symmetry of image gradients. The pr...
The classification of general-purpose photographs into textured and non-textured images is critical for developing accurate content-based image retrieval systems for large-scale i...
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...

Abstract. This paper presents a Bayesian inference algorithm for image layer representation [26], 2.1D sketch [6], with mixed Markov random field. 2.1D sketch is an very important...
