Global Minimum for Active Contour Models: A Minimal Path Approach
A new boundary detection approach for shape modeling is presented. It detects the global minimum of an active contour model's energy between two end points. Initialization is ...

Multi-stage Contour Based Detection of Deformable Objects
We present an efficient multi stage approach to detection of deformable objects in real, cluttered images given a single or few hand drawn examples as models. The method handles de...

Corner Detection of Contour Images using Spectral Clustering
Corner detection plays an important role in object recognition and motion analysis. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical corner detection framework based on spectral clusterin...

More-Than-Topology-Preserving Flows for Active Contours and Polygons
Active contour and active polygon models have been used widely for image segmentation. In some applications, the topology of the object(s) to be detected from an image is known a ...
