Abstract

A new approach for modelling electrical discharges is proposed. To this purpose, an active contour named 3Dsnake is used that is geometrically represented by a B-spline which evolves in 3D space constrained by internal and external energies. More specifically, this external energy come from a pair of images. This new model is much less dependent on determination of homologous points than the approaches found in the literature for recovering 3D geometry of electrical discharges. In addition, the proposal discussed here is capable of tracking the evolution os the electrical discharge taking into account the time dependence between consecutive pairs of frames in two videos.
