Top-Down segmentation of histological images using a digital deformable model
Résumé
This paper presents a straightforward top-down segmentation method based on a contour approach on histological images. Our approach relies on a digital deformable model whose internal energy is based on the minimum length polygon and that uses a greedy algorithm to minimise its energy. Experiments on real histological images of breast cancer yields results as good as that of classical active contours.
