Abstract

Active shape model is a deformable model which has proven very successful results in the field of image segmentation. The success of ASM model lies in its ability to find the right positions of all landmark points which define the object shape. Intensity profiles are an important part of the Active Shape Models (ASM) which help steer and optimize matching process. However, their simplicity in the standard version of the ASM turns into weakness. The difficulties are met when they are applied to complex structures. The main purpose of this paper is to give a review and discussion about the alternatives proposed in the literature that provide more elaborated intensity models and their impact on the performance of ASM.
