This paper considers the problem of image segmentation for medical images, in particular, cutaneous lesions. Given a digital image of a skin lesion, our goal is to compute the border curve separating the lesion from the image background. This problem can be formulated as an optimization problem, where the border curve is computed through data fitting from a set of points lying on the lesion boundary. Some recent papers have applied artificial intelligence techniques to tackle this issue. However, they usually focus on the polynomial case, ignoring the more powerful (but also more difficult) case of rational curves. In this paper, we address this problem with rational Bézier curves by applying functional networks, a powerful extension of the classical neural networks. Experimental results on some benchmark medical images show that this method performs well and can be successfully applied to this problem.
