Real-Time Interactive Path Extraction with On-the-Fly Adaptation of the External Forces

Abstract

The aim of this work is to propose an adaptation of optimal path based interactive tools for image segmentation (related to Live-Wire [ 12 ] and Intelligent Scissors [ 18 ] approaches). We efficiently use both discrete [ 10 ] and continuous [ 6 ] path search approaches. The segmentation relies on the notion of energy function and we introduce the possibility of complete on-the-fly adaptation of each individual energy term, as well as of their relative weights. Non-specialist users have then a full control of the drawing process which automatically selects the most relevant set of features to steer the path extraction. Tests have been performed on a large variety of medical images.
