Fast Continuous Max-Flow Algorithm to 2D/3D Image Segmentation

Fast continuous max-flow algorithm to 2D/3D image segmentation developed in matlab, C and GPU

You are now following this Submission

This software implements the fast continuous max-flow algorithm to 2D/3D image segmentation. It provides three implementations: matlab, C and GPU (cuda based). All the source files are provided. So it is easy for you to incorporate the algorithms in your applications.

Image segmentation can be modeled as computing the min-cut in a spatially continuous setting. The continuous max-flow formulation is dual/equivalent to such continuous min-cut problem. On the other hand, it also leads to a new fast algorithm in numerics, i.e. the fast continuous max-flow algorithm. More details are given in the document CMF_README.pdf. Wish this software would be helpful for you and your works!

For multi-region image segmentation, the fast continuous max-flow algorithm can be downloaded by:

which computes multiple segments simultaneously!
