Abstract
The problem of automatically marking the interior and exterior regions of a simple curve in a digital image becomes a hard task due to the noise and the intrinsic difficulties of the media where the image is taken. In this paper, we propose a definition of the interior of a partially bounded region and present a bio-inspired algorithm for finding it in the framework of Membrane Computing.
