           Snakes on a Plane

               Diffusion Snakes incorporate a powerful minimization function
               with a statistical model (means and covariances) of expected
               shapes and their modes of variation. Chris Brown hopes to
               introduce the concepts and go over a summer's worth of work on
               implementating them, along with providing a recommendation
               for what to do next.
