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...
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...

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...
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...
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...
