Accelerating active contour algorithms with the Gradient Diffusion Field
Active contours were proposed by Kass et al. as a way to represent the contours of an image. Although the method is simple, one of its shortcomings is its inability to converge in...

Lennard-Jones force field for Geometric Active Contour
This paper presents a new Geometric Active Contour (GAC) model based on Lennard-Jones (L-J) force field, which is inspired by the theory of intermolecular interaction. It is diff...
