We propose a novel approach to generate intermediate contours given a sequence of object contours. The proposal unifies shape features through contour curvature analysis and motion between the contours through optic flow analysis. The major contribution of this work is in integrating this shape and image intensity-based contour interpolation scheme in a level-set framework. The interpolated contours between an initial and a target contour act as missing link and establish a path along which contour deformation has taken place. We have shown that for different application domains such as 3D organ visualization (the generation of contours between two spatially apart contours of 2D slice images of a 3D organ), the meteorological applications of tracing, and the path of a developing cyclone (when satellite images are taken at distant time points and the shape of cyclone in between two consecutive satellite images are of interest), the proposal has outperformed the competing approaches. |
