An Algorithm for Nonlocal TV Minimization, Matlab/C Code, June 25, 2009 |
PDFs:1. X. Bresson, "A Short Note for Nonlocal TV Minimization", Junel 2009 | ||
Description:This is a short note to explain how to efficiently minimize the nonlocal Total Variation (NLTV) energy. The method is based on the Split-Bregman (SB), introduced by Goldstein-Osher, and extended to a nonlocal/graph version by Zhang-Burger-Bresson-Osher. For the 256x256 | ||

A Fast Global Minimization Algorithm for Active Contour Models based on the Split-Bregman Method, Matlab/C Code, April 10, 2009 |
Description:A fast global minimization algorithm is developed to minimize a large class of segmentation models called active contours. We believe that the proposed theory and algorithm produce so far one of the most efficient minimization methods for the active contour segmentation problem. For example, the well-know cameraman picture, which size is 256x256, is segmented in less than 0.1 seconds. Besides, our algorithm, while being easier to code, produces results slightly faster than the popular and fast graph-cuts technique. Our algorithm is also more accurate than graph-cuts because it uses isotropic schemes to regularize the contour and is sub-pixel accurate. Besides, the memory requirement is low. Finally, the reader can make fast its own active contour model. We emphasized in the code the parts where the reader can add his/her own model. | ||
