An Improved Active Contour Model in Medical Image Segmentation
Xuefei Zhang · Journal of Physics Conference Series · 2019
Abstract Aiming at the problem that medical image segmentation has low precision because of restriction of image principle, this paper proposes an improved active contour model based on vector field convolution, and combining both the balloon force and gradient directional information. This method improves the energy function of model, has more chances to approximate the complex boundary. The experimental results show that the new model not only inherits the advantages of the previous models, but also show fast speed, limits the influence of false edge and noise disturbance.
