Abstract :
An adaptive segmentation system for detection of simple structures in biomedical images is presented. The system adaptively selects the best segmentation algorithm on the basis of the segmentation status and of the segmentation goal, and executes different iterations. A geometric model can be specified or not. Use of a on-line evaluation of the segmentation status and the decision strategy are the most innovative characteristics of the system.
