Distraction Free Evolution of Active Contours
We propose a novel energy term to make the curve evolution quite robust to spurious edges. The physical intuition behind the formulation is that an object edge is generally contin...

An Improved Diversity Mechanism for Solving Constrained Optimization Problems Using a Multimembered Evolution Strategy
This paper presents an improved version of a simple evolution strategy (SES) to solve global nonlinear optimization problems. As its previous version, the approach does not require...

A Curve Evolution Approach to Smoothing and Segmentation Using the Mumford-Shah Functional
In this work, we approach the classic Mumford-Shah problem from a curve evolution perspective. In particular, we let a given family of curves define the boundaries between regions...

Curve Evolution, Boundary-Value Stochastic Processes, the Mumford-Shah Problem, and Missing Data Applications
We present an estimation-theoretic approach to curve evolution for the Mumford-Shah problem. By viewing an active contour as the set of discontinuities in the Mumford-Shah problem...
