This paper proposes a new evolutionary region merging method to improve segmentation quality result on oversegmented images. The initial segmented image is described by a modified ...
Lips segmentation is a very important step in many applications such as automatic speech reading, MPEG-4 compression, special effects, facial analysis and emotion recognition. In ...

In this paper, we propose to focus on the segmentation of vectorial features (e.g. vector fields or color intensity) using region-based active contours. We search for a domain that...
This paper proposes an image segmentation method named iterative region growing using semantics (IRGS), which is characterized by two aspects. First, it uses graduated increased ed...
?We have recently proposed an approach to recognition that uses regions to determine the pose of objects while allowing for partial occlusion of the regions. Regions introduce an a...
