It is an important segmentation approach of CT/MRI images to automatically extract contours in every slice using active contour models. The key point of the segmentation approach is to automatically construct initial contours for active contour models because any active contour model is sensitive to its initial contour. This paper presents an algorithm to construct such initial contours using a heuristic method. Assume that the contour in previous slice (previous contour) is accurate. The contour in the current slice (current contour) is constructed according to the previous contour using the

Existing contour-based building-reconstruction methods face the challenge of producing low-poly results. In this study, we introduce a novel iterative contour-based method to reconstruct low-poly meshes with only essential details from mesh soups. Our method focuses on two primary targets that determine the quality of the results: reduce the total number of contours, and generate compact surfaces between contours. Specifically, we implemented an iterative pipeline to gradually extract vital contours by loss and topological variance, and potential redundant contours will be removed in a post-pr

Intonation generation in expressive speech such as storytelling is essential to produce high quality Malay language expressive speech synthesizer. Intonation generation, for instance explicit control, has shown good performance in terms of intelligibility with reasonably natural speech; thus, it was selected in this research. This approach modifies the prosodic features, such as pitch contour, intensity, and duration, to generate the intonation. However, modification of pitch contour remains a problem because the desired pitch contour is not achieved. This paper formulated an improved pitch co

Our visual system can link components of contours and segregate contours from complex backgrounds based on geometric grouping rules. This is an important intermediate step in object recognition. The substrate for contour integration may be based on contextual interactions and intrinsic horizontal connections seen in primary visual cortex (V1).

It is an important way for segmentations of CT images to extract contours of objects slice-by-slice. For such a way, an important idea is analogy. That is to say, correct the contour in current slice (current contour) according to the contour in previous slice (previous contour). The key to properly correct the current contour is the ability to recognize occlusions (or say leaking parts) in the current contour. We present a curve-based curve parameterization method to recognize occlusions. The previous contour is evolved to the current contour using line projections. In the process of evolutio

There are a lot of developments focused on 3D surface reconstruction based on 2D contours in recent decades, mostly based on closed contours. Due to the limitation of imperfect technology on material classification and edge extraction, it’s difficult to extract closed contours automatically, and this situation limits the application of 3D surface reconstruction based on contour. This paper designs a reconstruction algorithm based on non-closed contour, which not only provides a new viewpoint for research on 3D reconstruction, but also make 3D reconstruction based on contour more applicable.

This study examined the aesthetic developmental characteristics of contour features (curved and sharp corners) among children and adolescents with different levels (high and low) of visual aesthetic sensitivity in three grades (4, 6, and 8). The results revealed that (1) there was a significant main effect of contour features, with children and adolescents liking curved contours and perceiving them as more beautiful than sharp-angled contours; (2) there was a significant interaction with contour features in grades 6 and 4, and there was no significant difference in liking curved contours and p

Accurate target delineation of CT image is a critical step in radiotherapy treatment planning. This paper describes a novel strategy for automatic contour propagation, based on deformable registration, for CT images of lung cancer. The proposed strategy starts with a manual-delineated contour in one slice of a 3D CT image. By means of feature-based deformable registration, the initial contour in other slices of the image can be propagated automatically, and then refined by active contour approach. Three algorithms are employed in the strategy: the Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF), Thin-Plate

Active contour models present a robust segmentation approach, which makes efficient use of specific information about objects in the input data rather than processing all of the data. They have been widely-used in many applications, including image segmentation, object boundary localisation, motion tracking, shape modelling, stereo matching and object reconstruction. In this paper, we investigate the potential of active contour models in extracting road edges from Mobile Laser Scanning (MLS) data.

Most computational and neural-style models of contour completion (ie illusory and occluded contours) are based on interpolation: the filling in of an edge between two visible edges. The results of three experiments suggest an alternative conception, that units are formed as a result of extrapolation from visible edges. In three experiments, subjects reported illusory contours between standard illusory-contour inducing elements and forms that do not, by themselves, induce illusory contours. We suggest that these forms are not a special case of inducing elements but that they represent a differe

A theory of illusory transparency and lightness is described for monocular and binocular images containing X-, T- and I-contour junctions. This theory asserts that the geometric and luminance relationships of contour junctions induce illusory transparency and lightness percepts by causing a phenomenal scission of a homogenous luminance into multiple contributions. Specifically, it is argued that a discontinuous change in contrast along aligned contours that preserve contrast polarity induces a scission of the lower contrast region into a near-transparent surface or an illumination change, and

The mechanical simulation experiment can provide guidelines for the structural design of materials, but the module partition of mechanical simulation experiments is still in its infancy. A mechanical simulation contour, e.g., strain and stress contour, has hierarchical characteristics. By analyzing the contour at different layers, the physical properties of the structure material can be improved. Current state-of-the-art methods cannot distinguish between simulation strain contours, as well as sparsely distributed spots of strain (stress concentrations) from simulation strain contour images, r

This study addresses challenges related to imprecise edge segmentation and low center point accuracy, particularly when mushrooms are heavily occluded or deformed within dense clusters. A high-precision mushroom contour segmentation algorithm is proposed that builds upon the improved SOLOv2, along with a contour reconstruction method using instance segmentation masks. The enhanced segmentation algorithm, PR-SOLOv2, incorporates the PointRend module during the up-sampling stage, introducing fine features and enhancing segmentation details. This addresses the difficulty of accurately segmenting

In this paper the smoothed contour detection method for objects of raster images is considered. The developed method is based on application of interpolation function for partial differential equation solutions and smoothed function for post-processing of detected contours. The accuracy of contour reproduction for raster image objects is increased on 4.87% by applying the developed method com

Abstract In a 2013 article, I partitioned all musical contours into fifteen types and arranged them in a network called the minimally divergent contour network (MDCN). Within the MDCN, we can examine the similarity between any two contour types by measuring the shortest path between them. However, despite the methodological efficiency, none of the fifteen types considers nonconsecutive repeated contour pitches. Prompted by this issue, this article extends the MDCN to include nonconsecutive repeated contour pitches. To demonstrate the analytic utility of the extended MDCN, I examine works by Br

Melodies, speech, and other stimuli that vary in pitch are processed largely in terms of the relative pitch differences between sounds. Relative representations permit recognition of pitch patterns despite variations in overall pitch level between instruments or speakers. A key component of relative pitch is the sequence of pitch increases and decreases from note to note, known as the melodic contour. Here we report that contour representations are also produced by patterns in loudness and brightness (an aspect of timbre). The representations of contours in different dimensions evidently have

Image analysis of a fiber cross-section can provide direct measurements for cotton maturity. Effective segmentation of fiber contours in a cross-sectional image is paramount for accurate fiber geometrical measurements. In a wide-field microscopic image, the adhesion, breakage, and ambiguity (low contrast or noise) of fiber contours make the segmentation rather challenging. This paper presents a new approach for contour segmentation that takes advantage of the shape features of the triple concentric contours, called the coupled-contour model (CCM), of a cross-section, and a CCM-based algorithm

Abstract. The application of remote monitoring of surface water has focused primarily on the detection of water bodies using expensive multi-spectral IR sensors. However, critical information about surface water bodies, particularly the dynamic behavior, is better derived from water contours. We show that water body detection is inadequate in accurately capturing the contours. Furthermore, we argue that RGB-based detection should be sufficient for accurate water detection.

Kinetic contours seen in rotating objects provide evidence about contour function in a kinetic condition. It was observed that (i) when an object with an arc-shaped edge in its outline is rotated, a kinetic contour arises from the rotating arc and bounds a ‘figure’; (ii) the kinetic contour not only protects the enclosed area of this figure from the destruction caused by motion, but also interrupts the continuity of the surroundings; (iii) kinetic contours are generally perceived to be organized into discs which appear as amodally completed forms in such a way that one object is hidden behind

Active contour models are widely used in image segmentation. In order to obtain ideal object boundary, researchers utilize various information to define new models for image segmentation. However, the models could not meet all scenes of image. In this paper, we propose a block evolution method to improve the robustness of contour evolution. A block matrix is consisted of contours of former iterations and contours of shape prior, and a nuclear norm of the matrix is a measure of the similarity of these shapes. The constraint of the nuclear norm minimization is imposed on the evolution of active
