Improved compound vector field based ACM model and medical image segmentation
Wufan Chen · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2007
An improved Active Contours Model(ACM) model algorithm for image segmentation based on the compound vector field is proposed.The image is processed by the generalized fuzzy theory to get a better edge map.The improved ACM model achieve a better effect on image segmentation by replacing the traditional GVF with the compound vector field.The segmentation experiments show that the algorithm has brilliant capacity of not only capturing the image feature in a wider region but also dealing with the concave regions.
