... and normal gradient flow of the evolving contour curve, respectively. Findings When a contour is far away from the object to be segmented or tracked, the effective way of contour evolution is that it moves to the object without deformation first and then it deforms into the shape of the object when...

...Joe F Engelberger; M.A. Sahir Arikan; Tuna Balkan Purpose Aims to experimental determination of paint flow rate flux for elliptical paint sprays. Paint flow rate flux distribution is necessary for computer simulation of the spray painting process. Design/methodology/approach Different painting...
