This paper. describes a fast process of parametric snake evolution with a multiresolution strategy. Conventional parametric evolution method relies on matrix inversion throughout the iteration intermittently, in contrast the proposed method relaxes the matrix inversion which is: costly and time consuming in cases where the resulting snake is flexible. The proposed method also eliminates the input of snake rigidity parameters when the snake is flexible. Also, a robust and definite termination criterion for both conventional and proposed methods is demonstrated ill this paper. (C) 2001 pattern Recognition Society. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
