In this paper we propose a novel prior-based variational object segmentation method in a global minimization framework which unifies image segmentation and image denoising. The id...

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to model shape variations. It encodes sparsity, exploits geometric redundancy, and accounts for the different degrees of local variation...
Abstract--An active shape model segmentation scheme is presented that is steered by optimal local features, contrary to normalized first order derivative profiles, as in the origin...

In deformable model segmentation, the geometric training process plays a crucial role in providing shape statistical priors and appearance statistics that are used as likelihoods. ...

We present a new object segmentation method that is based on geodesic active contours with combined shape and appearance priors. It is known that using shape priors can significan...
