MASSIVE MARCHING: A PARALLEL COMPUTATION OF DISTANCE FUNCTION
Abstract
The methods based on the evolution of a curve controlled by partial differential equations (PDE), represent an efficient and flexible tool of image segmentation, recognition or object tracking. For these methods, an accurate and rapid computation of the distance function is of a key importance. We propose a new, entirely parallel algorithm yielding the distance function and its hardware implementation.
