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...
— In this paper we present an automated support for software model evolution using a formal language constructs. For this, we extended Object Constraint Language (OCL) with actio...
We propose a novel energy term to make the curve evolution quite robust to spurious edges. The physical intuition behind the formulation is that an object edge is generally contin...
Code smells are design flaws in object-oriented designs that may lead to maintainability issues in the further evolution of the software system. This study focuses on the evolutio...

— This paper presents Natural Evolution Strategies (NES), a novel algorithm for performing real-valued ‘black box’ function optimization: optimizing an unknown objective func...
