Abstract - This paper presents an improvement over a previous contour closure algorithm. Assuming that edge points are given as input, the proposed approach consists of two steps. ...
Abstract. An approach to symbolic contour extraction will be described that consists of three stages: enhancement, detection, and extraction of edges and corners. Edges and corners...

In this paper, we present a new method for segmenting closed contours and surfaces. Our work builds on a variant of the Fast Marching algorithm. First, an initial point on the des...
We reconstruct pipe-shaped objects from a set of contours, each of which is extracted from an image representing a slice sampled from 3D volume data. The contours are formed by con...
A novel snake model suitable for edge extraction of bandshape objects is presented in this paper. Based on the proposed model, an edge tracking system, EdgeTrak, has been develope...
