Skeletons are often used as a framework for part-based shape description and matching. This paper describes some useful strategies that can be employed to improve the performance ...
We present a new shape prior segmentation method using graph cuts capable of segmenting multiple objects. The shape prior energy is based on a shape distance popular with level se...
Abstract—Segmenting lesions is a vital step in many computerized mass-detection schemes for digital (or digitized) mammograms. We have developed two novel lesion segmentation tec...
Abstract: This paper concerns the best approach to the capture of local texture features for use in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) applications. From our previous work, two a...
A novel method of snakes with shape prior is presented in this paper. We propose to add a new force which makes the curve evolve to particular shape corresponding to a template to...
