Abstract
This paper illustrates a new object-oriented segmentation algorithm based on the cellular neural network (CNN) paradigm. The approach, which exploits rigorous model of the image contours, presents two remarkable features: 1) it provides more accurate segmented objects than the ones obtained by other CNN-based techniques; 2) it makes use of CNN templates that take into account the hardware characteristics imposed by the CNNUM. Results carried out for benchmark video sequences highlight the capabilities of the proposed technique.
