Contour Detection and Completion for Inpainting and Segmentation Based on Topological Gradient and Fast Marching Algorithms
We combine in this paper the topological gradient, which is a powerful method for edge detection in image processing, and a variant of the minimal path method in order to find connected contours. The topological gradient provides a more global analysis of the image than the standard gradient and ide...
