Polar Snakes: A Fast And Robust Parametric Active Contour Model
We present in this paper a way to perform a fast and robust image segmentation and to track a contour along a sequence of images. Our approach is based on a dynamic deformable mod...

New Possibilities with Sobolev Active Contours
Recently, the Sobolev metric was introduced to define gradient flows of various geometric active contour energies. It was shown that the Sobolev metric out-performs the tradition...

Local or Global Minima: Flexible Dual-Front Active Contours
Most variational active contour models are designed to find the “desirable” local minima of data-dependent energy functionals with the hope of avoiding undesirable configurat...

A Fast Multigrid Implicit Algorithm for the Evolution of Geodesic Active Contours
Active contour models are among the most popular PDE-based tools in computer vision. In this paper we present a new algorithm for the fast evolution of geodesic active contours an...

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...
