Active contour formulations predominate current minimization of the Mumford-Shah functional (MSF) for image segmentation and filtering. Unfortunately, these formulations necessitat...
In this paper, we present a novel active contour model, in which the traditional gradient descent optimization is replaced by graph cut optimization. The basic idea is to first de...

This paper presents a novel graph cut based segmentation approach with shape priors. The model incorporates statistical shape prior information with the active contour without edg...
We propose a fully automated variation of the GrabCut technique for segmenting comparatively simple images with little variation in background colour and relatively high contrast ...
A methodology for the segmentation of successive frames of a video sequence is presented. Traditional methods, treating each frame in isolation, are computationally expensive, ign...
