In this paper, we propose a new model for active contours to detect objects in a given image, based on techniques of curve evolution, Mumford-Shah functional for segmentation and l...
— The accurate detection of object boundaries via active contours is an ongoing research topic in computer vision. Most active contours converge towards some desired contour by m...

We present a lip contour extraction method using separability of color intensity distributions. Usually it is difficult to robustly extract the outer lip contour mainly because of...
A common problem in most active contour methods is that the recursive searching scheme can only return a local optimal solution. Furthermore, the internal energy of the snake is n...
Protection of one's intellectual property is a topic with important technological and legal facets. The significance of this issue is amplified nowadays due to the ease of da...
