In this paper we consider the problem of computing globally minimal continuous curves and surfaces for image segmentation and 3D reconstruction. This is solved using a maximal flo...
The implicit framework of the level-set method has several advantages when tracking propagating fronts. Indeed, the evolving contour is embedded in a higher dimensional level-set f...
In this paper we propose an active contour model for segmentation based on the Chan-Vese model. The new model can capture inherent sharp features, i.e., the sharp corners of object...
Active shape models are a powerful and widely used tool to interpret complex image data. By building models of shape variation they enable search algorithms to use a priori knowle...
Active contour (snake) approaches have been proved to be efficient tools to extract object boundary precisely. One drawback of these methods is that state-of-the-art snake algorit...
