Extraction and analysis of actin networks based on Open Active Contour models
Network structures formed by actin filaments are present in many kinds of fluorescence microscopy images. In order to quantify the conformations and dynamics of such actin fila...

Snakules: A Model-Based Active Contour Algorithm for the Annotation of Spicules on Mammography
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...

Curious snakes: A minimum latency solution to the cluttered background problem in active contours
We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels), embedd...

Local Region Descriptors for Active Contours Evolution
Edge-based and region-based active contours are frequently used in image segmentation. While edges characterize small neighborhoods of pixels, region descriptors characterize entir...

Generalized Gradients: Priors on Minimization Flows
This paper tackles an important aspect of the variational problem underlying active contours: optimization by gradient flows. Classically, the definition of a gradient depends d...

Graph Partitioning Active Contours (GPAC) for Image Segmentation
In this paper we introduce new type of variational segmentation cost functions and associated active contour methods that are based on pairwise similarities or dissimilarities of t...

Recovering epipolar direction from two affine views of a planar object
The mainstream approach to estimate epipolar geometry from two views requires matching the projections of at least 4 non-coplanar points in the scene, assuming a full projective c...

Tracking With Sobolev Active Contours
Recently proposed Sobolev active contours introduced a new paradigm for minimizing energies defined on curves by changing the traditional cost of perturbing a curve and thereby re...

Ultrasound-Specific Segmentation via Decorrelation and Statistical Region-Based Active Contours
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...
