A wavelet-frame based image force model for active contouring algorithms

This paper proposes a directional image force (DIF) for active contouring. DIF is the inner product of the zero crossing strength (ZCS) of wavelet frame coefficients, and the normal of a snake, by representing strength and orientation of edges at multiple resolution levels. DIF markedly improves the...

Zusammenfassung:This paper proposes a directional image force (DIF) for active contouring. DIF is the inner product of the zero crossing strength (ZCS) of wavelet frame coefficients, and the normal of a snake, by representing strength and orientation of edges at multiple resolution levels. DIF markedly improves the immunity of snakes to noise and convexity.
