Restoration and Segmentation of Highly Degraded Characters Using a Shape-Independent Level Set Approach and Multi-level Classifi
Segmentation of ancient documents is challenging. In the worst cases, text characters become fragmented as the results of strong degradation processes. New active contour methods ...

Finding a Closed Boundary by Growing Minimal Paths from a Single Point on 2D or 3D Images
In this paper, we present a new method for segmenting closed contours and surfaces. Our work builds on a variant of the Fast Marching algorithm. First, an initial point on the des...

Phase Field Models and Higher-Order Active Contours
The representation and modelling of regions is an important topic in computer vision. In this paper, we represent a region via a level set of a ‘phase field’ function. The fu...

Particle Filtering for Geometric Active Contours with Application to Tracking Moving and Deforming Objects
Geometric active contours are formulated in a manner which is parametrization independent. As such, they are amenable to representation as the zero level set of the graph of a hig...

B-spline active contours for fast video segmentation
Video segmentation is among the most important challenges of video processing and compression (MPEG-4 and MPEG-7). A drawback of classical methods is the computational cost due to...
