A novel two-stage level set evolution method for detecting man-made objects in aerial images is described. The method is based on a modified Mumford-Shah model and it uses a two-s...
This paper is devoted to piecewise-constant segmentation of images using a curve evolution approach in a variational formulation. The problem to be solved is also called the minima...
Abstract. We present an algorithm to generate samples from probability distributions on the space of curves. We view a traditional curve evolution energy functional as a negative l...

—We propose a combinatorial solution to determine the optimal elastic matching of a deformable template to an image. The central idea is to cast the optimal matching of each temp...
Abstract--We have developed a novel, model-based active contour algorithm, termed "snakules", for the annotation of spicules on mammography. At each suspect spiculated ma...
