This paper presents a new approach to extracting and representing structural features of images. The approach is based on both a region-based analysis and a contour-based analysis...
In this paper we introduce new type of variational segmentation cost functions and associated active contour methods that are based on pairwise similarities or dissimilarities of t...
This paper proposes a new stopping criterion for automatic image segmentation based on region merging. The criterion is dependent on image content itself and when combined with the...
In recent years, the eld of active-contour based image segmentation have seen the emergence of two competing approaches. The rst and oldest approach represents active contours in ...
Iris segmentation is one of the crucial steps in building an iris recognition system since it affects the accuracy of the iris matching significantly. This segmentation should acc...
