Study of Active Contour Modelling for Image Segmentation: A Review
نویسنده
چکیده
Active contour models are widely used for image segmentation. In this paper the study of various active contour models based on Chan-Vese approach is given. Partial differential equation based method widely used on real and artificial noisy images with different shapes and blurring boundaries and energy minimization has been achieved. The possibilities of extracting exact contour using these methods on artificial and real pictures depends upon the number of iterations and resulted into efficient and accurate segmentation but the dependency of method is on initial points of contour and subject to constraints from a given image. Development of video segmentation, a combination of active contour method and watershed presegmentation for tracking of moving objects is aimed to differentiate ROI and NROI efficiently but uncertainty of the moving micro objects partially deviate the results. The overall techniques can be implemented for the configuration based quality analysis of food products.

The stochastic active contour scheme (STACS) is a well-known and frequently-used approach for segmentation of the endocardium boundary in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images. However, it suffers significant difficulties with image inhomogeneity due to using a region-based term based on the global Gaussian probability density functions of the innerouter regions of the active ...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Skin Lesion Border Detection in Dermoscopy Images
Background: With advances in medical imaging systems, digital dermoscopy has become one of the major imaging modalities in the analysis of skin lesions. Thus, automated segmentation or border detection has a great impact on the subsequent steps of skin cancer computer-aided diagnosis using demoscopy images. Since dermoscopy images suffer from artifacts such as shading and hair, there is a need ...
متن کاملThe Potential of Active Contour Models in Extracting Roads from Mobile Laser Scanning Data
Active contour models present a robust segmentation approach which make efficient use of specific information about objects in the input data rather than processing all the data. They have been widely used in many applications including image segmentation, object boundary localisation, motion tracking, shape modelling, stereo matching and object reconstruction. In this paper, we investigate the...
متن کاملOn Analytical Study of Self-Affine Maps
Self-affine maps were successfully used for edge detection, image segmentation, and contour extraction. They belong to the general category of patch-based methods. Particularly, each self-affine map is defined by one pair of patches in the image domain. By minimizing the difference between these patches, the optimal translation vector of the self-affine map is obtained. Almost all image process...
متن کاملA Survey of SOM-Based Active Contour Models for Image Segmentation
Self Organizing Maps (SOMs) have attracted the attention of many computer vision scientists, particularly when dealing with image segmentation as a contour extraction problem. The idea of utilizing the prototypes (weights) of a SOM to model an evolving contour has produced a new class of Active Contour Models (ACM s), known as SOM based ACM s. Such models have been proposed in general with the ...
