We present a region-based active contour approach to segmenting masses in digital mammograms. The algorithm developed in a Maximum Likelihood approach is based on the calculation o...
In this paper, we present a new image segmentation method based on energy minimization for iteratively evolving an implicit active contour. Methods for active contour evolution is ...

Active contour models are among the most popular PDE-based tools in computer vision. In this paper we present a new algorithm for the fast evolution of geodesic active contours an...
Active contours were proposed by Kass et al. as a way to represent the contours of an image. Although the method is simple, one of its shortcomings is its inability to converge in...
Recently, the Sobolev metric was introduced to define gradient flows of various geometric active contour energies. It was shown that the Sobolev metric out-performs the tradition...
