    Enhanced Decoupled Active Contour Using Structural and Textural Variation Energy Functionals

    Active contours are a popular approach for object segmentation that uses an energy minimizing spline to extract an objects boundary. Non-parametric approaches can be computationally complex while parametric approaches can be impacted by parameter sensitivity. A decoupled active contour (DAC) overcomes these problems by decoupling the external and internal energies and optimizing them separately. However…
