Fifth International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV'95) Gradient flows and geometric active contour models Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts June 20-June 23 ISBN: 0-8186-7042-8
In this paper, we analyze the geometric active contour models discussed previously from a curve evolution point of view and propose some modifications based on gradient flows relative to certain new feature-based Riemannian metrics. This leads to a novel snake paradigm in which the feature of interest may be considered to lie at the bottom of a potential well. Thus the snake is attracted very naturally and efficiently to the desired feature. Moreover, we consider some 3-D active surface models based on these ideas.
