Virtually all implementations of simulated annealing are simplified by assuming discrete unknowns, however continuous-parameter annealing has many potential applications to image ...
In this paper, we describe an unsupervised segmentation method for contours which proves quite adapted for the images obtained by electronic acquisition. We present two statistica...
We introduce a 3-D parametric active contour algorithm for the shape estimation of DNA molecules from stereo cryo-electron micrographs. We consider a 3-D filament (consisting of a...
The Fourier phase spectrum of an image is well known to contain crucial information about the image geometry, in particular its contours. In this paper, we show that it is also st...
