...Nosrati and Hamarneh (2014) and Cohen et al. (2015) first classify tissue regions into different constituents and then employ a constrained level set algorithm to segment the glands. Sirinukunwattana et al. (2015) identified epithelial superpixels and 85 used epithelial regions as vertices of a polygon approximating the boundary of a gland....

...Nosrati and Hamarneh(2014) augmented the level set framework with the ability to handle two important and intuitive gometric relationships,containmentand exclusion, along with a distance constraint between boundaries of multi-region objects (Figures16 and 17)....

...In energy-based segmentation problems there is a trade-off between fidelity and optimizability (Hamarneh, 2011; McIntosh and Hamarneh, 2012; Ulén et al., 2013; Nosrati and Hamarneh, 2014)....
