Active Snake （Level Set 模型）

前沿：最近由于大论文实验的原因，需要整理几种Snake方法，以比较道路提取效果。所以今天晚上就将电脑中的一些LBF Snake代码作一下分类定义。并给出效果。以便比较。

1. 原始的LBF Snake方法的效果

 原始的LBF算法实现如下；

实验的代码下载地址，Download Link。然后在网盘中找到这个目录，然后找到下图所示的文件。

但是，初步测试是不能用，原因是LSE程序的源文件无法编译，找不到源文件。这个代码中提到的参考文献是[1]. 如果需要更加详细的学习，请直接百度学术中下载。

一下是原作者在代码中的一些说明：

%  Notes:
%    1. Some parameters are set to default values for the demos in this package. They may need to be
%       modified for different types of images. 
%    2. The current version does not work for images with multiple junctions, due to its two-phase
%       formulation (i.e. using only one level set function). For example, an image has 3 objects/regions, 
%       and each object/region is directly contiguous to all the other two objects/regions. This code will be 
%       extended to multiphase in the future version, which will be available at the author's webpage.
%    3. The image intensities may need to be rescaled to the range of [0, 255], if the intensities are much lower
%       or much higher than 255. Alternatively, you can change the parameters lambda1 and lambda2, and nu (the 
%       coefficient of lenght term) accordingly.

实验的代码下载地址，Download Link。然后在网盘中找到这个目录

用原作者自己的一些话说明，则如下

% This Matlab file demomstrates a level set method in Chunming Li et al's paper
%    "Minimization of Region-Scalable Fitting Energy for Image Segmentation",
%    IEEE Trans. Image Processing, vol. 17 (10), pp.1940-1949, 2008.

% Note 1: The original model (LBF) with a small scale parameter sigma, such as sigma = 3, is sensitive to
%         the initialization of the level set function. Appropriate initial level set functions are given in
%         this code for different test images.
% Note 2: There are several ways to improve the original LBF model to make it robust to initialization.
%         One of the improved LBF algorithms is implemented by the code in the following link:

2 CV模型

程序缺乏相应的文档说明，只在演示程序中找到下面的话。应该这个代码就是实现的这个文章了。参考文献[3].

%   Matlab code implementing Chan-Vese model in the paper 'Active Contours Without Edges'
%   This method works well for bimodal images, for example the image 'three.bmp'

 

初始化时，需要画一条线。运行结果如下：

程序代码同样在第一次提到的下载连接处，Download Link，找到这个文件夹
