Discrete-time CNN for image segmentation by active contours. (English) Zbl 0909.68213
Summary: We present a new image segmentation strategy which operates by means of active contours implemented on a multilayer cellular neural network. The approach consists of an expanding and thinning process, guided by external information from a contour which evolves until it reaches the final desired position in the image processed.
