Many techniques of knowledge-based segmentation consist of building statistical models that describe the deformations of the structure of interest, and then fit these models to t...

We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels), embedd...

Abstract. In this paper, we propose an evolution equation for the active contours in scale spaces. This evolution equation is based on the Polyakov functional that has been first ...

The human visual system observes and understands a scene/image by making a series of fixations. Every "fixation point" lies inside a particular region of arbitrary shape...

We propose a novel energy term to make the curve evolution quite robust to spurious edges. The physical intuition behind the formulation is that an object edge is generally contin...
