英文摘要	this paper presents a new image segmentation method that applies an edge-based level set method in a relay fashion. the proposed method segments an image in a series of nested subregions that are automatically created by shrinking the stabilized curves in their previous subregions. the final result is obtained by combining all boundaries detected in these subregions. the proposed method has the following three advantages: 1) it can be automatically executed without human-computer interactions; 2) it applies the edge-based level set method with relay fashion to detect all boundaries; and 3) it automatically obtains a full segmentation without specifying the number of relays in advance. the comparison experiments illustrate that the proposed method performs better than the representative level set methods, and it can obtain similar or better results compared with other popular segmentation algorithms.
