Global region-based active contours, like the Chan-Vese model, often make strong assumptions on the intensity distributions of the searched object and background, preventing their ...
This paper addresses the application of active contours or snakes for robust tracking of contours. Conventional snake approaches to tracking initialize the current frame snake wit...
Snakes, or active contours, are used extensively in
computer vision and image processing applications, particularly
to locate object boundaries. Problems associated with initiali...
We present in this paper a way to perform a fast and robust image segmentation and to track a contour along a sequence of images. Our approach is based on a dynamic deformable mod...
Few people use the probability theory in order to achieve image segmentation with snake models. In this article1 , we are presenting an active contour algorithm based on a probabi...
