Abstract :
In this paper, we proposed a new method to segment a given image, based on curve evolution and edgeflow techniques. The approach automatically detect boundaries, and change of topology in terms of the edgeflow fields. We present the numerical implementation and the experimental results based on the semi-implicit method. Experimental results show that one can obtains a high quality edge contour
