The proposed method is related to parametric and geodesic active contours as well as minimal paths, in the context of image segmentation 1 . Our geodesically linked active contour ...
Segmentation of ultrasound images is often a very challenging task due to speckle noise that contaminates the image. It is well known that speckle noise exhibits an asymmetric dis...

We present an estimation-theoretic approach to curve evolution for the Mumford-Shah problem. By viewing an active contour as the set of discontinuities in the Mumford-Shah problem...
This paper presents a variational method for supervised texture segmentation, which is based on ideas coming from the curve propagation theory. We assume that a preferable texture...
A novel scheme for the detection of object boundaries is presented. The technique is based on active contours evolving in time according to intrinsic geometric measures of the imag...
