In this paper we present an algorithm capable of locating the target object contour of sharp tips accurately in the interactive rate. Considering that the edge are usually on the zero-crossing points after Marr transformation for most images, existing techniques tend to give undesirable results because the energy path containing more points is given less priority. In our method we specify a pointer to point the current point on a path of interest, when the energy of current path is less than the energy for the previous point, we check n latest points in the current path instead of checking only one point as existing techniques do, and, if more than m point m≤n is zero-crossing, the pointer of the point is updated, otherwise, the pointer remains unchanged. Using this criterion we can insert new seeds automatically near the tips of the target object and the burr is eliminated by a vectorization approach. The final contour traced out fits the feature of the target object well and the effectiveness of our method is demonstrated by examples shown in the paper. Keywords contour detection, snake, graph searching formulation of dynamic programming. 0引言 图象分割是一项广泛应用的图象处理技术。由于图象的多义性和复杂性，许多分割的工作无法依靠计算机自动完成，而手工分割又存在工作量大，定位不准确的难题，因此，人们提出了一些人工交互和计算机自动定位相结合的方法，利用各自的优势，实现目标轮廓的快速定位。纵观这些方法，它们大致可以归结为两类： 一类为Snake 算法或Active Contour Models[1][2]；这类算法需要给出初始的轮廓，然后进行迭代，使轮廓沿能量降低的方向靠近，最后得到一个优化
