Abstract

We present a modified binary level set method for two-phase image segmentation, which is based on the binary level set method originally proposed by X.-C. Tai et al. [Int. J. Comput. Vis. 73, 61–76 (2007)]. The modified binary level set method is superior to Tai et al.'s binary level set method in preserving the curve evolution property of gradually shrinking and expanding the partition interface represented by a binary level set function in the segmentation process. Some experiments conducted on real images show the good results of the modified binary level set method.
