Condensation, a form of likelihood-weighted particle filtering, has been successfully used to infer the shapes of highly constrained "active" contours in video sequences...
We define a novel metric on the space of closed planar curves which decomposes into three intuitive components. According to this metric centroid translations, scale changes and ...

Abstract. We present a lip contour tracking algorithm using attractorguided particle filtering. Usually it is difficult to robustly track the lip contour because the lip contour i...
We introduce a novel algorithm for actin filament tracking and elongation measurement. Particle Filters (PF) and Stretching Open Active Contours (SOAC) work cooperatively to simpli...
In this paper, we present an object contour tracking approach using graph cuts based active contours (GCBAC). Our proposed algorithm does not need any a priori global shape model,...
