Contour Parametrization via Anisotropic Mean Curvature Flow (AMCF)

This module is an implementation of the Mean Curvature Flow with constraints. The available code was used to generate the examples here.

The mean curvature flow (MCF) deforms a hypersurface in the normal direction with a speed proportional to its mean curvature. An example of a constrained MCF is the evolution of a closed planar curve enclosing an unique object. This code evolves a curve drawn around a single object picture, the evolution stops at the points which reach the object.

Examples

Python Dependencies

• pycuda
• PIL
• pylab
• numpy
• matplotlib

Run

• Edit line 18 in "ImageRec_v4.py" to select the image.
• Run "ImageRec_v4.py".

Note:

• For Python 3.X, 'print' syntax must be modified.
• A new version for Python 3 is now included: ImageRec_v4_PY3.py.
