  1. Gradient Vector Flow Snake C. Xu and J. L. Prince Project Proposal by Charlie Neo

  2. Problem Description • Finding Object Boundaries • Snake (Active Contour) is extensively used • Initialization • Poor convergence to boundaries concavities

  3. Previous Work • M. Kass, A. Witkin, and D. Terzopoulos, “Snakes: Active contour models,” Int. J. Comput. Vis., vol. 1, pp. 321–331, 1987. • V. Caselles, R. Kimmel, and G. Sapiro, “Geodesic active contours,” in Proc. 5th Int. Conf. Computer Vision, 1995, pp. 694–699. • L. D. Cohen, “On active contour models and balloons,” CVGIP: Image Understand., vol. 53, pp. 211–218, Mar. 1991. • C. Xu and J. L. Prince, ``Snakes, Shapes, and Gradient Vector Flow,'' IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 7(3), pp. 359-369, March 1998.

  4. Algorithm (GVF) • Edge map f (x,y) from Image • Gradient vector flow field • That minimizes energy function • GVF can be found by solving Euler equation as a function of time

  5. Algorithm (GVF Snake) • Parametric curve solving

  6. Examples

  7. 3D surfaces

  8. Validate • Images in the authors website • Images from the Intelligent Scissors Lab
