Segmentation on surfaces with the closest point method

We propose a method to detect objects and patterns in textures on general surfaces. Our approach applies the Chan-Vese variational model for active contours without edges to the problem of segmentation of scalar surface data. This leads to gradient descent equations which are level set equations on...
