Active Contour Model, Snake Liyan Zhang Department of Computer Science University of Nevada, Reno Lzhang@cs.unr.edu Summary: The active contour model, or snake, is an energy-minimizing spline guided by external constraint forces and influenced by image forces that pull it toward features such as lines and edges [3]. It can interact with higher process or user. In this project, we implement a Java interface for user to draw initial contour and adjust the influence of different energy terms. We also regularize the parameters for paleontological specimen. 1. Introduction Under the Marr’s paradig
