Abstract. This paper introduces a two-level approach for image segmentation based on region and edge integration. Edges are first detected in the original image using a combinatio...
Separating machine printed text and handwriting from overlapping text is a challenging problem in the document analysis field and no reliable algorithms have been developed thus f...
In this paper, a new model is proposed for image segmentation that integrates the curve evolution and anisotropic diffusion methods. The curve evolution method, utilizing both grad...

Intravascular ultrasound images represent a unique tool to analyze the morphology of arteries and vessels (plaques, etc). The poor quality of these images makes traditional segmen...
In this paper, we propose a competitive image segmentation algorithm. It is a dynamic evolving optimization method, which we call the population algorithm. The method is inspired f...
