Many methods based on the morphological notion of shapes (i.e., connected components of level sets) have been proved to be very efficient in shape recognition and shape analysis. The inclusion relationship of the level lines (boundaries of level sets) forms the tree of shapes, a tree-based image representation with a high potential. Numerous applications using this tree representation have been proposed...
Many methods relying on the morphological notion of shapes, (i.e., connected components of level sets) have been proved to be very useful for pattern analysis and recognition. Selecting meaningful level lines (boundaries of level sets) yields to simplify images while preserving salient structures. Many image simplification and/or segmentation methods are driven by the optimization of an energy functional,...
Image segmentation can be defined as the detection of closed contours surrounding objects of interest. Given a family of closed curves obtained by some means, a difficulty is to extract the relevant ones. A classical approach is to define an energy minimization framework, where interesting contours correspond to local minima of this energy. Active contours, graph cuts or minimum ratio cuts are instances...
