Abstract

A novel, physical-based force, called as Lorentz force inspired by classical electrodynamics is introduced for the active contour models, and the truncation computing method of Lorentz Force is detailed. Several comparative results indicate that the new force field has similar effects with the Gradient Vector Flow (GVF) field, but it has a remarkable promotion of evaluation speed. The new force is more suitable to be applied to real-time image processing applications.
