A Review of Deformable Curves from the Perspective of Chromosome Image Segmentation

This study surveys deformable curves (active contours) with the aim of identifying a suitable type of deformable curve for the task of chromosome image segmentation. Deformable curves offer a unique and powerful approach to segmentation. They are capable of accommodating variability of biological structures. Deformable curves also support interactive mechanisms that permit expert interaction during the process. The objective of this was to to study the theoretical frameworks of different active contour models, classify the methods according to several properties and compare their properties. This study reviews the deformable curves and their application specifically to the task of chromosome image segmentation.
