Minimal Weighted Local Variance as Edge Detector for Active Contour Models
Performing segmentation of narrow, elongated structures with low contrast boundaries is a challenging problem. Boundaries of these structures are difficult to be located when noise...

Shape Regularized Active Contour Using Iterative Global Search and Local Optimization
Recently, nonlinear shape models have been shown to improve the robustness and flexibility of segmentation. In this paper, we propose Shape Regularized Active Contour (ShRAC) that...

Localizing Region-Based Active Contours
Abstract--In this paper, we propose a natural framework that allows any region-based segmentation energy to be re-formulated in a local way. We consider local rather than global im...

The Cluttered Background Problem for Active Contours: A Minimum-Latency Solution
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...
