Analysis of protrusion dynamics in amoeboid cell motility by means of regularized contour flows
Fig 3
Algorithm to compute curvature, local motion and local dispersion.
The two regularization parameters λglo and λloc are used in the RegFlow routine (see Fig 2) to determine the global (strongly regularized) and local (weakly regularized) flow. The output comprises the smoothed contours Γ0, …, ΓK−1 as well as geometric quantities of interest such as curvature, local motion, and local dispersion.
