Unsupervised segmentation based on robust estimation and color active contour models.

Unsupervised segmentation based on robust estimation and color active contour models.

One of the most commonly used clinical tests performed today is the routine evaluation of peripheral blood smears. In this paper, we investigate the design, development, and implementation of a robust color gradient vector flow (GVF) active contour model for performing segmentation, using a database...
