Improved C-V Level Set Algorithm and its Application in Video Segmentation

Image segmentation method based on level set model has wide potential application for its excellent segmentation result. However its complex computing restricts its application in video segmentation. In order to improve the speed of image segmentation, this paper presents a new level set initialization method based on Chan-Vese level set model. After a simple iterative, we can separate out the outline of objects. Experiments show that the method is simple and efficient, with good separation effects. The improved Chan-Vese method can be applied in video segmentation.
