PDE Acceleration for Active Contours
Following the seminal work of Nesterov, accelerated optimization methods have been used to powerfully boost the performance of first-order, gradient-based parameter estimation in scenarios where second-order optimization strategies are either inapplicable or impractical. Accelerated gradient descent converges faster and performs a more robust local search of the parameter space by initially overshooting then oscillating back into minimizers which have a basis of attraction large enough to contain the overshoot. Recent work has demonstrated how a broad class of accelerated schemes can be cast in a variational framework leading to continuum limit ODE's. We extend their formulation to the PDE framework, specifically for the infinite dimensional manifold of continuous curves, to introduce acceleration, and its added robustness, into the broad range of PDE based active contours.

A Characteristic Function-based Algorithm for Geodesic Active Contours
Active contour models have been widely used in image segmentation, and the level set method (LSM) is the most popular approach for solving the models, via implicitly representing the contour by a level set function. Howe…

In this paper we present a novel approach for representing and evolving deformable active contours. The method combines piecewise regular B{\'e}zier models and curve evolution defined by local Free Form Deformation. The …
