The article presents applications of graph cuts in the image processing. We describe the original Ford–Fulkerson algorithm and its modification -Edmonds-Karp algorithm. We also present our modifications of this algorithm. These modifications lead to a major acceleration of the segmentation process, which is demonstrated using real images of a left ventricle. Although the results are not equivalent to the non-modified algorithm, this modification is suitable for our application.
