A Novel Deformable Grid Method for Image Segmentation
Xiao Dong Zhuang, Xiao Peng Ji, Zhi Qiang Wei · Applied Mechanics and Materials · 2013
A physics-inspired deformable grid model is proposed for image structure representation. The attracting force between adjacent points is defined according to the gray-scale difference, which causes the grid to deform. The final grid shape after deformation can represent image structure, based on which a segmentation method is proposed. The experiments indicate the method’s effectiveness.
