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...
An automatic cortical gray matter segmentation from a three-dimensional (3-D) brain images [magnetic resonance (MR) or computed tomography] is a well known problem in medical image...

Edge-based and region-based active contours are frequently used in image segmentation. While edges characterize small neighborhoods of pixels, region descriptors characterize entir...

"Oneperson's noise is another person's signal." For manyapplications, including the detection of credit card frauds and the monitoringof criminal activities in...
Active contour formulations predominate current minimization of the Mumford-Shah functional (MSF) for image segmentation and filtering. Unfortunately, these formulations necessitat...
