Initialization and Stopping Tolerance in CPU Dermoscopic Segmentation

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 22, 2026 · UTC

Contour initialization and numerical stopping can jointly affect the evaluation of active-contour segmentation. We examine their interaction using the open-source scikit-image Chan-Vese implementation on a resized ISIC 2017 mirror. A fixed development set of 100 images selects a common input channel; all 600 images in the repository's held-out partition are then evaluated. Otsu thresholding is compared with checkerboard-, disk-, and Otsu-initialized contours under default and tighter level-set tolerances. At the default tolerance, Otsu initialization increases mean image Dice from 0.6011 to 0.
