نویسندگان
چکیده
The parametric active contour models are widely used in computer vision and image processing. This paper reviews the research status of parametric active contour models in the past decade. The parametric active contour models have gained wide attention for a long time. First, the traditional snake and some typical modified models are introduced. Second, the parametric active contour models applications in the field of image processing are reviewed. Finally, the future work of parametric active contour models is pointed out.

Active Contour Models
Active contour models have been widely applied to image segmentation and analysis. It has been successfully used in contour detection for object recognition, computer vision, computer graphics, and biomedical image processing such as X-ray, MRI and Ultrasound images. The energy-minimizing active contour models or snakes were developed by Kass, Witkin and Terzopoulos in 1987. Snakes are curves d...
متن کاملFlexible Shape Extraction for Micro/nano Scale Structured Surfaces
Surface feature is the one of the most important factors affecting the functionality and reliability of micro scale patterned surfaces. For micro scale patterned surface characterisation, it’s important to extract the surface feature effectively and accurately. The active contours, known as “snakes”, have been successfully used to segment, match and track the objects of interest. The active con...
متن کاملImage-Based Verification of Parametric Models in Heart-Ventricle Volumetry
Measuring the volume of heart ventricles is an important issue in heart disease diagnosis. Therefore radiologists investigate computer tomographic images, searching for representative projections of the left ventricle. In the selected image showing the left ventricle with maximum circumference, a parametric model is established by measuring width and height of the left ventricle shape. These pa...
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 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...
