In this paper, we propose to use an active contour method to attract active surfaces towards non-smoothed segmentation masks. To achieve this task, we introduce a new region-based...
This paper addresses the application of active contours or snakes for location and tracking of facial features. Conventional snake approaches find the position of the snake by fin...
This paper1 presents an algorithm for automatically detecting bone contours from hand radiographs using active contours. Prior knowledge is first used to locate initial contours f...
This paper investigates novel LBP-guided active contour approaches to texture segmentation. The Local Binary Pattern (LBP) operator is well suited for texture representation, comb...

Condensation, a form of likelihood-weighted particle filtering, has been successfully used to infer the shapes of highly constrained "active" contours in video sequences...
