Abstract:

This study surveys deformable curves (active contours) with the aim of identifying a suitable type of deformable curve for the task of chromosome image segmentation. Deformable curves offer a unique and powerful approach to segmentation. They are capable of accommodating variability of biologica structures. Deformable curves also support interactive mechanisms that permit expert interaction during the process. The objective of this was to study the theoretical frameworks of different active contour models, classify the method according to several properties and compare their properties. This study review: the deformable curves and their application specifically to the task of chromosome image segmentation.
