Abstract

We introduce a bilateral intensity fitting active contour model, which takes into consideration both the space distance and local intensity variation. It demonstrates flexible contour initialisation in handing intensity inhomogeneity, efficient segmentation, robustness to high noise, and ability to work with weak boundaries and complex background. Experiments with synthetic and real images show high efficiency of the model.
