Active Contour (or Snake) Model is recognized as one of the efficient tools for 2D/3D image segmentation. However, traditional snake models prove to be limited in several aspects...
Abstract. In this paper, we present an approach for image segmentation, based on the existing Active Snake Model and Watershed-based Region Merging. Our algorithm includes initial ...
We propose a methodology for improved segmentation of images in a Bayesian framework by fusion of color, texture and gradient information. The proposed algorithm is initialized by...
Snakes, or active contours, are used extensively in computer
vision and image processing applications, particularly
to locate object boundaries. Problems associated with
initial...
A novel method is introduced to force a geometric-based snake be more tolerant towards weak edges and noise in images. The method integrates gradient flow forces with region cons...
