A method is presented for segmentation of anatomical structures that incorporates prior information about shape. The method iteratively applies steps which find object’s border ...
This paper proposes a novel model-guided segmentation framework utilizing a statistical surface wavelet model as a shape prior. In the model building process, a set of training sh...

Abstract. This paper presents a novel approach for image segmentation by introducing competition between neighboring shape models. Our method is motivated by the observation that e...

We construct a Bayesian model that integrates topdown with bottom-up criteria, capitalizing on their relative merits to obtain figure-ground segmentation that is shape-specific an...
We present a modification of the Mumford-Shah functional and its cartoon limit which facilitates the incorporation of a statistical prior on the shape of the segmenting contour. By...
