Abstract

An appropriate space of one-pixel-wide closed (OPWC) boundary configurations is explicitly defined and an automatic algorithm to obtain OPWC contour estimates from a segmented image is presented. The motivation is to obtain a reasonable starting estimate for a Markov chain Monte Carlo-based (McMC-based) boundary optimization algorithm.
