Abstract

In this paper, we discuss some uses of curve evolution theory for problems in computer vision. We concentrate on three problem areas: shape theory, active contours, and geometric invariant scale spaces. The solutions to these key problems will all be based on flows which are obtained in a completely natural manner from geometric and physical principles.
