Active Shape Models (ASM) have proven to be an effective approach for image segmentation. In some applications, however, the linear model of gray level appearance around a contour ...

Abstract. This paper presents a novel active surface segmentation algorithm using a multiscale shape representation and prior. We define a parametric model of a surface using spher...

Extraction of structures of interest in medical images is often an arduous task because of noisy or incomplete data. However, handsegmented data are often available and most of the...
We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...
Statistical appearance models are valuable tools in medical image segmentation. Current methods elegantly incorporate global shape and appearance, but can not cope with local appe...
