A Variational Shape Optimization Approach for Image Segmentation with a Mumford--Shah Functional
We introduce a novel computational method for a Mumford-Shah functional, which decomposes a given image into smooth regions separated by closed curves. Casting this as a shape opti...

An Adaptive Potential for Robust Shape Estimation
This paper describes an algorithm for shape estimation in cluttered scenes. A new image potential is defined based on strokes detected in the image. The motivation is simple. Fea...
