Résumé : 

Image segmentation is a crucial task in the image processingfield. This paper presents a new region-based active contour whichhandles global information as well as local one, both based on the pixelsintensities. The trade-off between these information is achieved by aspatially varying function computed for each contour node location. Theapplication preliminary results of this method on computed tomographyand X-ray images show outstanding and efficient object extraction
