A fully automatic method to extract field boundaries from imagery is described in this paper. The fields are represented together with additional prior knowledge in the form of GIS...
Since their debut in 1987, snakes (active contour models) have become a standard image analysis technique with several variants now in common use. We present a framework called ``...

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...
—This paper presents an Improved Snake Model (ISM) effective for performing fast image segmentation. The work takes advantage of two well-known snake models of Balloon [1] and GG...
We propose a novel Active Volume Model (AVM) which deforms in a free-form manner to minimize energy. Unlike Snakes and level-set active contours which only consider curves or surfa...
