Abstract :
Generating region outlines from grayscale images using contour generation algorithms is one of the basic methods for image segmentation. The results can be used in 3D reconstruction from contours. The algorithm proposed in this paper which uses templates can effectively deal with the cases when contours pass through grid points and reach image boundaries.
