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...
Recently, the Sobolev metric was introduced to define gradient flows of various geometric active contour energies. It was shown that the Sobolev metric out-performs the tradition...

Most variational active contour models are designed to find the “desirable” local minima of data-dependent energy functionals with the hope of avoiding undesirable configurat...
This paper presents a novel methodology to obtain the breast skin line in mammographic images. The breast edge provides important information of the breast shape and deformation wh...

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...
