Title
Morphological snakes
Abstract
We introduce a morphological approach to curve evolu- tion. The differential operators used in the standard PDE snake models can be approached using morphological op- erations on a binary level set. By combining the morpho- logical operators associated to the PDE components we achieve a new snakes evolution algorithm. This new solu- tion is based on numerical methods which are very simple, fast and stable. Moreover, since the level set is just a binary piecewise constant function, this approach does not require to estimate a contour distance function. To illustrate the re- sults obtained we present some numerical experiments on real images.
