Multiple Active Contours Guided by Differential Evolution for Medical Image Segmentation

This paper presents a new image segmentation method based on multiple active contours guided by differential evolution, called MACDE. The segmentation method uses differential evolution over a polar coordinate system to increase the exploration and exploitation capabilities regarding the classical a...
