An emerging topic is to build image segmentation systems that can segment hundreds to thousands of objects (i.e. cell segmentation\tracking, full brain parcellation, full body segmentation, etc.). Multi-object Level Set Methods (MLSM) perform this task with the benefit of sub-pixel precision. Howeve...
