Multiphase Image Segmentation Using the Deformable Simplicial Complex Method
Vedrana Andersen Dahl, Asger Nyman Christiansen, Jakob Andreas Bærentzen · 2014
The deformable simplicial complex method is a generic method for tracking deformable interfaces. It provides explicit interface representation, topological adaptivity, and multiphase support. As such, the deformable simplicial complex method can readily be used for representing active contours in image segmentation based on deformable models. We show the benefits of using the deformable simplicial complex method for image segmentation by segmenting an image into a known number of segments characterized by distinct mean pixel intensities.
