We combine in this paper the topological gradient, which is a powerful method for edge detection in image processing, and a variant of the minimal path method in order to find connected contours. The topological gradient provides a more global analysis of the image than the standard gradient, and identifies the main edges of an image. Several image processing problems (e.g. inpainting and segmentation) require continuous contours. For this purpose, we consider the fast marching algorithm, in order to find minimal paths in the topological gradient image. This coupled algorithm quickly provides accurate and connected contours. We present then two numerical applications, to image inpainting and segmentation, of this hybrid algorithm.Subjects / Keywords
