In this paper, we present a region-based deformable cylinder model, extending the work on classical region-based active contours and gradient-based ribbon snakes. Defined by a cent...
In this paper, we present a novel active contour model, in which the traditional gradient descent optimization is replaced by graph cut optimization. The basic idea is to first de...

Anatomical shapes present a unique problem in terms of accurate representation and medical image segmentation. Three-dimensional (3D) statistical shape models have been extensivel...

We propose a fully automated variation of the GrabCut technique for segmenting comparatively simple images with little variation in background colour and relatively high contrast ...
We present two approaches for automatically segmenting the spinal cord/canal from native CT images of the thorax region containing the spine. Different strategies are included to ...
