Snakes, or active contours, are used extensively in computer
vision and image processing applications, particularly
to locate object boundaries. Problems associated with
initial...
The emerging MPEG-7 standard embodies a visual descriptor that will be associated with the dominant colors of an image. In this contribution, a threshold adaptation method for reg...
We introduce a novel computational method for a Mumford-Shah functional, which decomposes a given image into smooth regions separated by closed curves. Casting this as a shape opti...
We present a new method for robustly decomposing a 3D voxel shape into disjoint segments using the medial surface, also called surface skeleton. The boundaries of the simplified ...
This paper presents a new stereo matching algorithm based on inter-regional cooperative optimization. The proposed algorithm uses regions as matching primitives and defines the co...
